* Next, navigate to the '''Configuration''' section, under '''Network''' choose '''Basic Settings''' and '''Port'''. Change the '''HTTP Port''' value to one that is different than your router's (the default value is '''80'''). For this example we'll be using '''port 8888'''. This done because we're trying to achieve a configuration that will allow remote access to the camera and because later we'll be using Port Forwarding to redirect all connections to a specific port, it is best that this port be different from the default one in order to avoid any problems (for example, so that the router's WebUI will also be reachable with our configuration).

* The camera configuration part is done as of the last step. But keep in mind that if you have changed the HTTP Port value, you'll need to specify the port next time that you connect to the camera's WebUI. When connecting to a device through a specific port, the port number is specified by adding a '''colon''' (''':''') and the port number after the device IP address/hostname, as such:
