1-3 Connect IP CAMERA to Internet
Connect IP Camera to your
broadband router or NAT
gateway.
Do the following setup:
1. Setup Virtual
Server/ forward port
on your router to
camera,
2. or set router DMZ to
your IP Camera IP,
3. Obtain DDNS
service from
DynDNS if you don’t
have fixed public IP,
4. Setup DDNS
account information
to your camera
5. Access camera URL through Internet.
14
IP CAMERA User’s Manual
Example:
http://your_camera.dyndns.org:port
Please reference more details of Router & DynDNS setup on Reference
User’s Manual.
Note:
1. Broadband router is firewall in nature will block all accesses from Internet,
you will need to set virtual server (port forwarding) on your router,
normally we will always suggest to use port > 1024 to avoid
conflicts, port <1024 are frequently used by other applications.
2. Check if the DNS & Gateway setting are correct, it is impossible to get out
of your LAN if wrong. (Gateway is the door, DNS is like "map", people
won't go out home without knowing where the door is or don't have map
to find the way)
3. Always test the DDNS service from another IP (that is out side of your
LAN), some router will block WAN port access from LAN.
4. Check the network setting of IP CAMERA IP Camera, the gateway IP is
your broadband router IP.
5. Check the network setting of IP CAMERA IP Camera, ask your ISP the
DNS IP or get DNS IP from your broadband router IP.

Using Wi-Fi Lan: Only for wireless IP Camera, you must set correct SSID and WEP
31
IP CAMERA User’s Manual
Key (IF your Wi-Fi AP enables WEP encryption)
Set correct SSID and WEP Key according to your Wi-Fi AP.
If your Wi-Fi AP enables WEP, WPA, WPA2 encryption (64 bits/ 128 bits), input WEP
key in HEX or ASCII format.
Channel will be set automatically according to AP, no need to set manually.
Note:
Please try wireless without encryption first, must set the AP SSID correctly. IP
CAMERA will find AP by SSID assigned. Please notice the SSID is capital
sensitive, must be correct uppercase or lowercase.
IP CAMERA is 2.4GHz Wi-Fi client, will link to Access Point (AP) of your
network. Optional Higher gain directional antenna can be used to extend
the wireless link distance.
1. IP CAMERA is 2.4GHz 802.11g wireless client, please don't use 5GHz AP.
2. Please must power on without Ethernet cable connected, or the wireless won't
be effective. If power on with RJ-45 connected, IP CAMERA will connect to
network by wire. Wired connection always has higher priority than wireless.
Please follow the below rules will help establish wireless link easier.
1. Set correct wireless settings with wired connection first, It's better to use fixed
IP address instead of DHCP (dynamic IP).
2. Un-plug Power and Ethernet cable after setting the wireless parameters.
3. Power on the IP CAMERA (be sure without the wired ethernet connected)
4. Go to command mode (C:\), use "ARP -d" to clear arp table
5. Access the same IP address (wired IP address) to connect IP CAMERA
wirelessly.
6. If you will us multiple XtendLan Wi-Fi IP Cameras, please set your
802.11g/b AP to g only mode to get best performance.
Note:
IP CAMERA will have only one IP address, the wireless IP address should remain
the same as wired IP address.
Because the physical MAC address of wireless interface is different from wired
interface MAC, there will be conflicts in ARP table that remember the old wired MAC bundled with the IP address now used by new wireless MAC, which will
cause trouble to establish new wireless link, it will take longer time to establish
wireless link (as long as 3~10 minutes after arp table auto refresh).
Please use ARP -d to clear the old data in arp table will help create wireless link

faster.
