Double click the IP Camera Tool icon and it should find the camera’s IP address automatically after you plug in
the network cable.
Figure 2.1
Double click the IP address of the camera; your default browser will open to the camera login page.
(2) Https:// LAN IP + Https Port no.
The default Https port no. is 443. You can use the url to access the camera: https:// LAN IP + HTTPS port.
Go to Settings - Network - Port panel , you can see and change the https port no.
Figure 2.2
2.2 Access the Camera in WAN
2.2.1 Static IP Addresses
Users who have static IP addresses do not need to set DDNS service settings for remote access. When you
have finished connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access the
camera directly from the Internet using the WAN IP address and port number.

How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public website ?
To obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser: http://www.whatismyip.com.The
webpage at this address will show you the current WAN IP.
Figure 2.3
Access your IP Camera from the Internet
You can access the IP Camera from the Internet (remote access). Enter the WAN IP address and port number
in your standard browser. For example, you would enter http:// 183.37.28.254:85
NOTE :
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 “UPnP
Successful” on the Device Status page.
2. Do port (HTTP port) forwarding manually.
If your router has a Virtual Server, it can do port forwarding. Add the camera’s LAN IP and port which you had
set 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 DDNS
service settings to view it remotely.
Step 1: Enter the username and password of the Administrator , and click “OK” to apply changes.
Step 2: Wait around 10 seconds, you’ll see that the camera’s LAN IP address has changed. In our example it
was changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000 in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address is
now fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if the
camera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important that
a static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the camera
remotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static
LAN IP address!

2.2.2 Dynamic IP Addresses
DDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, to have a
fixed host and domain name. This means that even though your WAN IP address is constantly changing, you
will have a fixed hostname you can use to access your cameras at all times. You can access the camera
directly from the Internet using the hostname and port number.
What is the HTTP Port no.?
1) Default HTTP Port is 88
All cameras have the default HTTP port of 88. For example, if the LAN IP link of the camera is
http://192.168.8.102:88, this means that the camera’s HTTP port is 88. You can change port 88 to another port
if you’d like such as 2000 or 8090, which will not be conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21,10000.Here you
can set the port no. between 1 and 65535.
2) 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 IP
Camera Tool
Step 1: Open the IP Camera Tool, select the camera you would like to change the port of, right click on the IP
address, and click on ”Network Configuration”, this brings up the network configuration box as shown in Figure
2.4 and 2.5.
Figure 2.4
Select which camera
you’d like to change the
port for, and right click .

Step 2: Modify the Http Port and enter the username and password of the Administrator , and click “OK to
apply changes.
Step 3: Wait around 10 seconds, youll see that the cameras LAN IP address has changed. Also, the LAN
IP address is now fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.1.110:88. This IP address will not change even if
the camera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important
that a static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the camera
remotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static
LAN IP address!
Figure 2.6
What is Port forwarding?
If you have never done port forwarding before, you can open and view the following link to understand the
basic concept. Port forwarding allows for outside connections to access a specific device on your network from
anywhere in the world. Every router automatically blocks any incoming connections for safety purposes. Using
port forwarding, you are telling your router to allow a connection through a certain port (you can think of it as a
gateway) into your router. You set this port to a specific device, in our case an IP Camera, so it can be
accessed from anywhere in the world.
Click this link to learn more about port forwarding: http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htm
How do we configure Port Forwarding ?
For this section, we will be using an example:
Let’s say the camera’s LAN IP address is http://192.168.8.100:2000
Step 1: Login to the router, and go to your routers port forwarding or port triggering menu. Sometimes this is
also under the name of Virtual Server or NAT.
Using the Linksys brand router as an example, we would log into the router, and go to the Applications
Modify the Http Port.
Enter the Username and
password, click OK .

Each Foscam camera has an embedded unique DDNS domain name, the format of this domain name is
xxxxxx.myfoscam.org. On the bottom of the camera, you can see the domain name sticker with this
information on it.
For example, we can use cp4911.myfoscam.org. In the camera, click Settings at the top, click “Network” on
the left, then click “DDNS to get to the DDNS settings page. Here you can see the unique domain name of
your camera.
Figure 2.8
Now you can use “http://Domain name + HTTP Port” to access the camera via the Internet.
Take hostname cp4911.myfoscam.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access the camera
via the Internet would be http:// test09.myfoscam.org:2000.
Fill the HTTP Port of the
camera in the columns of
External Port and Internal
Port. Example: 2000
Fill in this section with the
LAN IP of the camera; we
would enter 100” for our
example.
Assign a name for the port
forward setting here .

password), 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 it
was changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000 in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address is
now fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if the
camera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important that
a static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the camera
remotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static
LAN IP address!
Figure 4.35
NOTE: If the camera cannot be accessed, please make sure the port forwarding is succeed.
HTTPS port: The default port is 443. You can use the url to access the camera: https:// IP + HTTPS port.
ONVIF port: By default, the ONVIF port is set to 888. Also, they can be assigned with another port number
between 1 and 65535(except 0 and 65534). But make sure they can not be conflict with other existing ports.
RTSP port:The default port is 554,only some IP Cameras have RTSP port.

Stream type: There are four types to identify different streams you have set.
Resolution: The camera supports multiple types, For example: 960P, 720P, VGA. The higher the resolution is,
the clearer video will become. But the code flux will become larger too, and it will take up more bandwidth.
(Different models support different specific types. )
Bit rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rate
configuration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, and bit
rate is large, that will lead to video can not play well.
Frame rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. You should lower frame rate when the
bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15, you can achieve fluently video.The maximum
frame rate for each model is different, please see the Specifications.
Key Frame Interval: The time between last key frame and next key frame. The shorter the duration, the more
likely you will get a better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption.
Variable bitrate: Select the Bit rate type to constant or variable.

3 Port forwarding is not successful.
Check these settings and make sure they are correct.
6.1.8 UPnP always failed
UPnP only contains port forwarding in our recent software. Sometimes, it may be failed to do port forwarding
automatically because of firewall or anti-virus software. It also has much relation with router’s security settings.
So we recommend you do port forwarding manually. You can view your camera in internet successfully after
you do port forwarding manually in your router.
6.1.9 Camera can not connect wireless
If your camera could not connect wireless after you set wireless settings and plug out the cable. Please check
whether your settings are correct or not.
Normally, camera can’t connect wireless mainly because of wrong settings.
Make sure broadcast your SSID; use the same encryption for router and camera.
