When you have finished connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access the camera directly from the Internet using the WAN IP address and port number. How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public website ？ To obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser: http://www.
www.foscam.com Figure 2.8 Access your IP Camera from the Internet You can access the IP Camera from the Internet (remote access). Enter the WAN IP address and port number in your standard browser. For example, you would enter http:// 183.37.28.254:85 NOTE : Make sure port forwarding is successful. You can do port forwarding two ways. login to your router to enable the “UPNP” function.
