4.2 Configuring the Camera to Use a Dynamic DNS Service
You can configure the camera to use Viewnetcam.com (see 4.2.1 Configuring the Camera to Use Viewnetcam.com) or a third-party Dynamic DNS service (see 4.2.2 Configuring the Camera to Use a Third-party Dynamic DNS Service).
A Dynamic DNS service is a service that allows you to assign an easy-to-remember URL (web address) to the camera, such as ***.viewnetcam.com, allowing you to access the camera from the Internet using your personalized URL. A Dynamic DNS service also allows you to easily access the camera, even when your Internet Service Provider changes your IP address, because the camera periodically contacts the Dynamic DNS service and notifies the service of its current address.
If you are interested in accessing your camera over the Internet, we recommend using a Dynamic DNS service, such as Viewnetcam.com. For more information about Viewnetcam.com, please visit http://www.viewnetcam.com for details.
