DCS-2100G User's Manual
6 When physically connecting the Internet Camera to
a network what network cabling is required?
The Internet Camera uses Category 5 UTP cable allowing 10 Base-T and 100 Base-T
networking.
7 Can the Internet Camera be setup as a PC-cam on a
computer?
No, the DCS-2100G Internet Camera is used only on an wireless 802.11g, Ethernet or
Fast Ethernet network. The D-Link DSB-C110, DSB-C310 can be used as a PC Camera
(Webcam).
8 Can the DCS-2100G be connected to the network if
it consists of only private IP addresses?
Yes, the Internet Camera can be connected to a LAN with private IP addresses.
9 Can the DCS-2100G be installed and work if a firewall
exists on the network?
If a firewall exists on the network, port 80 is open for ordinary data communication. The
DCS-2100G uses port 5001 for control and synchronization, port 5002 for streaming
audio and port 5003 for streaming video. These ports (or the ports you specify from the
Advanced Tab in the Configuration screen if you change the default ports) need to be
opened on the firewall. Please refer to page 47 for more information.
10 Why am I unable to access the DCS-2100G from a
Web browser?
If a router or firewall is used on the network, the correct por ts for the
DCS-2100G may not be configured on the router or firewall. To correct the problem, you
need to determine if the DCS-2100G is behind a router or firewall and if the router or
firewall is properly configured for the ports the DCS-2100G is using. Refer to page 37
for help in opening the correct ports on a router or firewall for use with the DCS-2100G.
Other possible problems might be due to the network cable. Try replacing your network
cable. Test the network interface of the product by connecting a local computer to the
unit, utilizing a Ethernet crossover cable. If the problem is not solved the Internet Camera
might be faulty.
