Connection Methods Wired LAN
This type of connection does not require the Wi-Fi antenna, and uses the Ethernet cable to directly connect to your router. Devices also connected to the router will be able to connect with the IP Camera.
Wireless LAN Use the Wi-Fi antenna to connect wirelessly with your router. Devices also connected to the router will be able to connect with the IP Camera.
Internet Using P2P technology, both the ‘Wired’ and ‘Wireless’ connection methods allow you to connect to your camera remotely, using a 3G, 4G or Wi-Fi network. For security, a ‘COT Pro’ account must be created and setup locally before remote viewing.

   Note – If connection is successful, the light will flash at the ethernet port

3. Connecting the Ethernet Cable
   a. Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into the IP Camera’s Ethernet port. Insert the other end of the cable into your router’s Ethernet port
   Note – The Ethernet cable is not required after the camera’s Network Settings have been changed to WiFi

4. Mounting the Camera
   a. Determine a suitable location to mount the IP Camera. Ensure that the adaptor will have access to a power outlet. In some cases, an extension lead (not included) may be required
