D-Link DCS-934L User Manual
Section 4 - Configuration
The following steps should apply to any router that you have on your network. The D-Link DIR-655 is used as an example to clarify the configuration
process. Configure the initial settings of the DIR-655 by following the steps outlined in the DIR-655 Quick Install Guide.
3. Access the Router with Your Web Browser
If you have cable or DSL Internet service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned
WAN IP address. Dynamic means that your router’s WAN IP address can change from time
to time depending on your ISP. A dynamic WAN IP address identifies your router on the
public network and allows it to access the Internet. To find out what your router’s WAN
IP address is, go to the status menu on your router and locate the WAN information for
your router (Status > Device Info in the example shown on the next page). The WAN IP
address will be listed. This is the address that you will need to type in your Web browser
to view your camera over the Internet.
Router Set-Up and Installation
Your WAN IP address will be listed on the router’s
Status > Device Info page.
