FCC Certifications This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. [. . . ] WLAN Configuration SSID (Service Set Identifier): This is a name that identifies a wireless network. Access Points and wireless clients attempting to connect to a specific WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) must use the same SSID. Note: The maximum length of an SSID is 32 single-byte characters and it cannot include the following characters: ", <, > or the space character. Wireless mode: Click on the pull-down menu to select from the following options: Infrastructure: Makes the Network Camera connect to the WLAN via an Access Point. (This is the default setting. ) Ad-Hoc: Makes the Network Camera connect directly to a host equipped with a wireless adapter in a peer-to-peer environment. Channel: While in infrastructure mode, the channel is selected automatically to match the channel setting for the selected Access Point. In Ad-Hoc mode, the channel must be manually set to the same channel for each wireless adapter. TX rate: This field is for selecting the maximum transmission rate on the network. The default setting is "auto", meaning that the network camera will try to connect to other wireless devices with the highest transmission rate. Preamble (either "Long preamble" or "Short preamble"): defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check: a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the Access Point and the roaming wireless device. Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type. Mode: Choose one of the modes below ("Auto" is the default setting; it is recommended that you leave it in this mode): Auto: The selection will apply the Shared mode authentication method. Shared: Allows communication only with other devices with identical WEP settings. Key length: The administrator can select the key length among 64 or 128 bits. ASCII: is a code for representing English letters as numbers from 0-127. You will not be able to use the following characters: " < > or the space character. If you decide to change from Hex to ASCII, you will receive a warning message that informs you that you cannot use these characters (with their Hex translations next to them in parentheses). When selecting different key lengths, acceptable input length is listed as follows: 64-bit key length: 10 Hex digits or 5 ASCII characters. 128-bit key length: 26 Hex digits or 13 ASCII characters. 31 SMTP SMTP (mail) server 1: The domain name or IP address of the external email server. Recipient email address 1: The email address of the recipients for snapshots or log files. SMTP (mail) server 2: The domain name or IP address of another email server once the previous server is unreachable. Recipient email address 2: The email addresses of the recipients for the backup server. [. . . ] Therefore, when the router's IP address changes, unless you intend to check the router's "Status" page regularly or you (and all authorized viewers) know the router's IP address at all times, you will not be able to view the camera over the Internet. (With the dynamic option, only the router's public IP address will change. Therefore, you will still be able to access the camera and all other clients on the local area network from within the network. ) 61 5. Use Port Mapping to Assign Virtual Server Ports Typically, there is an "Advanced Setup" (or similar) section on the router's web page where you can find a "Virtual Server" or "Port Mapping" sub-section. To enable remote viewing over the Internet for your camera, you will need to open virtual server ports on your router. [. . . ]
