1.4.1 Configure on Laptop / Computer
Before configuring this camera on your laptop / computer, make sure:
The Windows operating system of your laptop / computer is Windows 7, Vista or XP.
You’ve connected the camera to a wireless network as instructed in “1.3 Connect Camera to Wireless
Network (LAN)”.
(Recommended) Your wireless router supports UPnP, and this function is enabled.
Note: If your wireless router doesn’t support UPnP, you need to additionally access your router for port
forwarding. For details, please refer to “APPENDIX 5 CONFIGURE PORT FORWARDING” at page

Connect a camera to the Internet
Step1: Connect your laptop / computer to the same wireless network as the camera connected.
Step2: Open “IPScan.exe” ( ) to search your camera, and:
Note down the IP address and port number after search, such as “192.168.30.155” and “88” in our example.
Select the IP address, and click “Configure” to note down the gateway IP address. It’s the address of your wireless router,
and you might need it later for port forwarding.
Change the port you’re using for this camera to other value (such as “8080”) in “Web Port” if you know the default port
number “88” is blocked by your Internet service provider or phone carrier. Then, enter the user name (admin) and
password (admin) to confirm.
The number of “80” is not recommended to use since some Internet service providers and phone carriers might block the
use of “80”.
