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.

3. Once logged in, open "Applications and Gaming" on the left navigation and click on "Port

Range 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. In the "Application" field enter a new Service Name, such as INSTEONIPCamera1.
