8.4 Trouble with Active X After launching your browser and entering your camera’s IP address, you’ll be asked for the username and password combination (D efault is admin/admin, case sensitive.) No User Interface in the Brows er This issue could have three possible causes.
If you’ve gone through all above steps but still can’t obtain video/audio on your browser, close all browser windows and delete the ‘IPSurveillance Embedded” folder found in C:Program Files. (If using 64-bit windows, l ook in C:Program Files (x86)), then open your browser, log into your IP camera, and reinstall the ActiveX client.
8.5 Trouble with Remot e Viewing on Browser You can view your camera’s video streams remo tely over the Internet. If you’re having trouble viewing video remotely, refer to th e section below for troubleshooting tips. The above figure depicts a typical setup in which: The IP camera has a static virtual IP address of 192.
3) Enable port forwarding on your router and allow traffic on the ports the IP camera is using. You may need to consult the ma nufacturer of your router for setting details. Note: Your router may require a reboot after port forw arding is set. The following figure details the settings r equire d to remotely view the IP cam era.
8.6 Symptoms, Causes, and Solutions Listed below are some common pr oblems, and their sol utions. Symptom Possible Cause/Solution Problems accessing from LAN network using web browser The entered IP address is incorrect. Make sure the IP address you entered matches the IP address of your ca mera.
Symptom Possible Cause/Solution Scanning and connecting to wireless AP takes a long time Too many wireless APs nearby. The amount of time taken to scan wireless APs depends on the number of wireless APs around the camera. If there are too many wireless APs (30 or more), it may take as long as 3 minutes to complete the scanning process.
Symptom Possible Cause/Solution Network diagnosis shows error icon Network connection error. The network connection test verifies that the camera has su cce ssfully connected to the LAN network. When the diagnosis result shows a red excla mation mark icon, it means that the camera fails to connect to the LAN network.
Symptom Possible Cause/Solution Part of the image becomes pixilated/Image artifacts appear Network bandwidth is insufficient. Without sufficient bandwidth, video quality will deteriorate and image errors like pixilation or frame-drop may occur.
Symptom Possible cause/solution A warning message appears stating “Your video quality is too high for your Internet bandwidth.” Network quality is not high enough. This means the camera’s browser interface, WebVUer, could not receive a steady strea m of video data from your camera.
