You will see the IPv4 address, the subnet mask and the default gateway.
#Easyn ip cam mac#
In the DOS window, enter the command “ipconfig”, on a MAC enter the command “ifconfig”.
#Easyn ip cam Pc#
The easiest place to get this information is to go on a PC that is on the network and open a DOS window (on Windows, press the START button and then type “command” or on a Mac, run Terminal).
Many times, unchecking DHCP will present you with the necessary fields for an IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS. To do this, you will have to go into the configuration screen for your camera and set the option to have a fixed IP address and not use DHCP. The first step is to set a fixed address on the camera so that it doesn’t change and you can always find it. The problem with this is that it’s likely that this address will change next time turn off and then back on the router or camera.
#Easyn ip cam software#
You click on that and it brings up the in-camera software that lets you view and configure the camera. Then you use a program the vendor provided on a CD that finds the IP address assigned to the camera. This is composed of 4 numbers from zero to 255 that are separated by periods that is how you find your camera. By default, most IP cameras are assigned a temporary IP address by your router. There’s several steps into making this work, so it’s best to start at the camera. We all know that if we go to a certain IP address on our home browser, we can configure and view the camera, but how do we do the very same thing when we are not home. The problem many of us have is how do we do it. Some cameras have 2 way audio, so you can even talk to the person or pet. Many of us have smartphones, iPads or netbooks that we take with us and it would be great to check in on the place, a pet or the elderly while at work, in a coffee shop or while traveling. Then I might consider that the router is OK but the new camera has a problem and needs to be returned for another.Moved to One of the biggest benefits of having IP cameras is being able to access them from the internet. I m now thinking that I should setup a different router (I have several spares) to see if the same (negative) action occurs. I tried “pinging” in DOS window, getting a response but after the addresses’ IP, I seem get the DNS IP address which tells me I’m pinging it rather than the indicated IP address of the camera (result: pinging 192.168.1.126:81 (20869.32.145) with 32 bytes of data:….). I also used the setup wizard to gain access with same result. It is here the problem occurs: putting the detected IP address into the browser gets me nowhere (times out attempting to connect) so I can’t gain access! I cannot gain access to it to log-in and make the necessary changes to the IP so I can see the camera over the Internet. The setup software detects and identifies the IP address, etc, of the cam OK. Any suggestions would be appreciated.įirst, yes, both computer and camera are on the same network (both plugged into same router). I even tried to get the supplied cam setup software “wizard” to gain access but it indicates inability to access with words:”The IP Camera cannot be accessed” and “Please check the Internet”! I tried to play with the router port forwarding table putting in the identified camera IP address along with port 81 and several other things but still can not gain access to the camera using the “identified” IP addresses so I can do the next steps to configure the camera so i can “see” it on the (external) Internet.
Tried this operation with two networked computers with same outcome.
The software identified the unit with IP address, HTTP Port, Access IP (same as identified IP address) and I tried to access the cam using the IP address the software identified (192.168.1.216:81) but my browser cannot access it to go through the next step in the setup. Used the included setup software to identify the cam after following the setup procedure by connecting it to the router via a LAN cable. Trying to access it through a DLink DIR-615 router. Have a wireless IP Wireless Camera (EasyN FS-613B).
