Remote Access

Remote accessing the IPcam-SD from the web or using the CMS software provided are

plug and play. By default, the IPcam-SD is plug and play, meaning you do not need

to open ports or do port forwarding in your router for remote access. However, the

“UPnP” option in the CMS NetService and the “UPnP” setting in your local router has

to be enabled also for the IP camera to become a true plug and play device.

Even though it is a plug and play IP camera, there will be some special case where

you would have to open up ports if plug and play does not work or comply. There

are several ports that are designated to the IPcam-SD that may be required to be

opened or forwarded from you router for remote access using Internet IE Browser,

Smartphone, and CMS to work. Ports; 34567 (Media), 34568 (Smartphone), and

34569 (real player streaming protocol). Since there are many varieties of routers out in

the market today, here we would like to demonstrate with a Netgear WGT624 wireless

router. To open ports, please do the following:

1. The administrator’s username and password are required to login to manage the router.

To login to your router, enter the gateway IP address found back in step 7 and then type

the gateway IP address into the URL of the IE browser, example http://192.168.1.1 (Yes, the

“ . “ dot is required in between then IP numbers). Next, click on “Advanced”, then “Port

Forwarding”, and “Add Custom Service”

2. In custom service, input the Service Name (ie. IPCamera), Service Type =TCP, Starting

Port=34567, Ending Port=34569, and Server IP Address (input your local area

network IP address that was assigned to the IPCam-SD). Click on “Apply” to confirm.

3. After confirmation, the following result will displayed to demonstrate that the

ports have been successfully opened as shown below. The IP address of

192.168.0.33 used is for demonstration purposes only.
