When youhave finished connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access thecamera directly from the Internet using the WAN IP address and port number.How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public websiteTo obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser: http://www.whatismyip.com.Thewebpage at this address will show you the current WAN IP.Enter the camera’s url , heretake https://192.168.8.129:443for exampleClick this button to add it

Enter the WAN IP address and port numberin your standard browser. For example, you would enter http:// 183.37.28.254:85NOTE :Make sure port forwarding is successful. You can do port forwarding two ways.1. Login to your router to enable the “UPNP” function. You can then login to the camera as administrator,choose Network, and then choose UPnP to enable UPnP. Make sure that the status of UPnP reads “UPnPSuccessful” on the Device Status page.2. Do port (HTTP port) forwarding manually. (See Figure 2.11 for further details)If your router has a Virtual Server, it can do port forwarding. Add the camera’s LAN IP and port which you hadset earlier to your router’s port forwarding settings.NOTE: If you plug the camera into a router, it will have a dynamic IP address and you need to set DDNSservice settings to view it remotely.2.2.2 Dynamic IP AddressesDDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, to have afixed host and domain name. This means that even though your WAN IP address is constantly changing, youwill have a fixed hostname you can use to access your cameras at all times. You can access the cameradirectly from the Internet using the hostname and port number.What is the HTTP Port no.?Default HTTP Port is 88

www.foscam.com11ShenzhenShenzhen FoscamFoscam IntelligentIntelligent TechnologyTechnology Co.,Co., LimitedLimitedTel:Tel: 8686 755755 26742674 56685668 Fax:Fax: 8686 755755 26742674 51685168 11All cameras have the default HTTP port of 88. For example, if the LAN IP link of the camera ishttp://192.168.8.102:88, this means that the camera’s HTTP port is 88. You can change port 88 to another portif you’d like such as 2000 or 8090, which will not be conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21,10000.Here youcan set the port no. between 1 and 65535.Change the default http no.88 to another one.How to assign a different HTTP Port No. and fixed the LAN IP of the camera by the IPCamera Tool？Step 1: Open the IP Camera Tool, select the camera you would like to change the port of, right click on the IPaddress, and click on ”Network Configuration”, this brings up the network configuration box as shown in Figure2.8 and 2.9.Figure 2.8Figure 2.9Step 2: Enter the username and password of the Administrator (default username is admin with a blankpassword), and click “OK” to apply changes.Step 3: Wait around 10 seconds, you’ll see that the camera’s LAN IP address has changed. In our example itwas changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000 in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address isnow fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if thecamera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important thata static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the cameraremotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a staticSelect which camerayou’d like to change theport for, and right clickModify the Http Port.Enter the Username andpassword,click OK.

On the bottom of the camera, you can see the domain name sticker with thisinformation on it.For example, we can use test09.myfoscam.org. In the camera, click Settings at the top, click “Network” onthe left, then click “DDNS” to get to the DDNS settings page. Here you can see the unique domain name ofyour camera.Figure 2.12Now you can use “http://Domain name + HTTP Port” to access the camera via the Internet.Take hostname test09.myfoscam.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access the cameravia the Internet would be http:// test09.myfoscam.org:2000.Second method :Use the Third party DDNS to access the camera via the InternetFill the HTTP Port of thecamera in the columns ofExternal Port and InternalPort. Example: 2000Fill in this section with theLAN IP of the camera; wewould enter “100” for ourexample.Assign a name for theport forward settinghere

The higher the resolution is, the clearervideo will become. But the code flux will become larger too, and it will take up more bandwidth.Bit rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rateconfiguration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, and bit rateis large, that will lead to video can not play well.Frame rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. When the video format is 50Hz, themaximum frame rate is 25 fps. When the video format is 60Hz, the maximum frame rate is 30 fps. You shouldlower frame rate when the bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15, you can achievefluently video.Key Frame Interval: The time between last key frame and next key frame. The shorter the duration, the morelikely you will get a better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption.4.4.2 On Screen DisplayThis page is used to add timestamp and device name on the video.
