The router connects to the Internet over a series of numbered ports. The ports normallyused by the NC601 are blocked from access over the Internet. Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the Internet. This is accomplished using the Virtual Server function on the router. The Virtual Server ports used by the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to your NC601. See below figure.Private IP(IP address of NC601 ): 192.168.0.100,Private Port: 80, Public Port: 80. Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80 and other commonly used Internet ports to conserve bandwidth. Check with your ISP so that you can open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the port the camera uses from 80 to something else, such as 800. Viewing Your Camera Not all routers are the same, so refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how to open ports. After all the router settings have been entered correctly, a PC user inside or outside your network will have access to the camera through the Internet Explorer Web browser. To access the camera from the Internet, type the IP Address of the router given to you by your ISP, followed by a colon, and the port number that you gave your camera (e.g., Http://202.115.122.96:800). It is not necessary to enter the colon and port number if you are using the default Web server port 80.

GLOSSARY1. Network Camera: A stand-alone device which allows users to view live, full motion video from anywhere on a computer network, even over the Internet, using a standard web browser.2. CMOS Sensor: Technology involving Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) to sense images. CMOS now rivals--and in some cases surpass--CCD technology in dynamic range and noise sensitivity and can offer improvements in resolution. 3. JPEG: A standard image format, used widely for photographs. Also known as JPG.4. IEEE 802.11b/g: The specifications developed by the IEEE for wireless network technology. It provides 11 Mbps transmission in the 2.4GHz band usage.5. WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy. A security protocol for wireless network defined in the IEEE 802.11b/g standard. WEP aims to provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end point to another.6. Adhoc Mode: A wireless network system in which devices communicate directly with each other, without the use of a wireless router.7. Infrastructure Mode: One of the wireless network system in which devices communicate with each other by first going through the wireless router. 8. IP Address: The unique 32 bit number assigned to each computer connected to the Internet. IP numbers are used by the TCP/IP protocol to route packets of data to their destinations. 9. TCP/IP: The collection of "protocols" underlying the functioning of the Internet. Each computer connected to the Internet is identified by a unique IP Address.10. SMTP: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.11. FTP: File Transfer Protocol. Network cameras equipped with an embedded operating system, such as Linux, can use FTP to send images to a website.12. DDNS: DDNS is a method of keeping a domain name linked to a dynamic IP address with your Network Camera. You can set up your DDNS service and the device will automatically update your DDNS server each time it alter a different IP address.13.
