Remote Viewing via Internet Explorer
It is likely that you may wish to check the video or audio of the IP camera from a
remote location. The following are the steps which you will need to perform in
order for a successful viewing.
The figure above denotes a general condition where:
a. The IP camera has a static virtual IP address of 192.168.0.1
b. The WAN IP address at the IP camera site is 61.220.20.16.
c. The client (user) is trying to view the video / audio stream remotely.
1. Please ensure that the camera’s image quality is set corresponding to the
host’s upload limit. You can check the camera’s image quality setting under
ActiveX -> Setup -> Video -> Quality. Should you set quality higher than that
of the upload limit, you will experience stutter in video or black video screen.
2. Check the ports on the camera by going into ActiveX -> Setup -> Network and
note down the HTTP and RTSP server ports, in this case, ports 80 and 554
respectively.
3. Please enable port forwarding in the router which the IP camera connected.
