DCS-6620G User’s Manual
D-Link Systems, Inc.
Using and Configuring the DCS-6620G with a Router
Determine Your Router’s IP Address (WAN)
Note:
Because a dynamic WAN IP can change from time to time depending on your ISP,
you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP.
A Static IP address is a fixed IP
address that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you to use to access
your camera from a remote location.
Open Virtual Server Ports to Enable Remote Image Viewing
The firewall security features built into the DI-624 router prevent users from accessing the
video from the
DCS-6620G
over the Internet. The router connects to the Internet over a series
of numbered ports. The ports normally used by the
DCS-6620G
are blocked from access over
the Internet.
Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the Internet. This is
accomplished using the
Virtual Server
function on the DI-624 router. The Virtual Server ports
used by the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to your camera.
Virtual Server is accessed by clicking on the
Advanced
tab of the router screen.
Your WAN IP Address
will be listed here.

Using and Configuring the DCS-6620G with a Router
Important:
Some ISPs block access to port 80.
Be sure to check with your ISP so that you can
open the appropriate ports accordingly. Some ISPs block traffic on commonly used ports to
conserve bandwidth. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the
port the camera uses from 80 to something else, such as 800. Not all routers are the same,
so refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how to open ports.
Follow these steps to configure your router’s Virtual Server settings

Viewing Your Camera
After all settings have been entered correctly, a PC user inside or outside your network will
have access to the camera through the Internet Explorer Web browser. To access the camera
from the Internet, type the IP Address of the router given to you by your ISP, followed by a
colon, and the port number that you gave your camera (e.g.,
). It is not
necessary to enter the colon and port number if you are using the default Web server port 80.
To access from a computer on your local (home) network, simply enter the local IP Address
of the Camera followed by a colon and the port number (e.g.,
