manual for device-specific port forwarding instructions.




Netgear

1. Type your router’s address into an Internet browser. By default, this should be 192.168.0.1;

the information should be provided in your router’s instructions or on the router itself.

2. You will be prompted to enter a username and a password. For Netgear devices, the

default username is "admin" and the password is either "password" or "1234" (unless you
have already changed them).

3. Open "Advanced" and click "Port Forwarding." The Ports window will open with

information on existing HTTP and FTP ports (these are used to connect your router to the
Internet).

4. Click the "Add Custom Service" button and enter a new service name, such as

INSTEONIPCamera1).

5. Enter the camera’s IP address (found in the IP Camera Tool device list) into the Server IP

Address field.

6. You will need to specify a port range to have open for your camera. 8000-8999 is a good

range to work with, but make sure the port you open does not conflict with any ports you
may already have open (from your list of Services on the "Port Forwarding" page). To
enter a single port (ex. port 8030), use the same port for the "Start Port" and "End Port."

7. Click "Apply" and logout from the router settings page.

8. After making sure you are not connected to your local wireless connection, open your

smartphone’s Internet browser and enter your camera IP address followed immediately by
a colon and the port you have opened (for example http://192.168.1.4:8030). You should
see the camera login screen.


Linksys

1. Type your router’s address into an Internet browser address bar. By default this should be

192.168.1.1; the information should be provided in your router’s instructions or on the
router itself.

2. You will be prompted to enter a username and a password. For Linksys devices, the

default username is "admin" and the password is left blank unless you have changed
them previously.
