administrator or your Internet Service Provider (ISP) if you do not have the

necessary information.

If you cannot connect to the camera, refer to page

Dynamic DNS (DDNS)

Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Service) is a method of keeping a domain name

linked to a changing (dynamic) IP address. With most Cable and DSL

connections, you are assigned a dynamic IP address and that address is used

only for the duration of that specific connection. With the

DCS-5300G

, you can

setup your DDNS service and the

DCS-5300G

will automatically update your

DDNS server every time it receives a different IP address. Depending on the

service, this update may take a few hours.
