Setting up Static IP on a Linksys Video Camera

Setting up Static IP address on a Linksys video camera is necessary if you want to view your camera from outside your home network. This helps in making it easier for your computer to communicate with your camera.

This article will show you how to set up Static IP address on your Linksys video camera using the following operating systems:

Windows Vista/Windows 7

NOTE: If you haven’t installed your camera using the Setup Wizard yet, click here for instructions. Ensure that the camera is connected to the router before doing the following procedure:

Step 1:
Launch the camera utility .

Step 2:
On the camera utility’s main window, click on Setup located at the bottom-left corner.

Step 3:
Wait while the camera utility searches for Wireless-G cameras connected to your home network.

Step 4:
Select the camera you want to configure and click on the Advanced Configuration button.
