ROUTERS AND FIREWALLS
Another solution is to use one of several small routers/firewalls currently available on the market.
These provide the necessary NAT functionality and allow complete independence for your PC,
which can be switched off or rebooted without affecting the image transmission from your Wireless
Network IP Camera.
WINGATE SERVER SOFTWARE
Running on a single Windows 95/98/2000 or NT computer, this software allows multiple users
simultaneous access to the Internet through a LAN or higher-speed line, such as xDSL or cable
modem connection; and effectively shares a single Internet connection with almost any type of client
computer running TCP/IP.
For more advanced users, the WinGate 3.0 Standard and Pro versions also allow the administrator to
change the IP bindings so that external requests may be routed specifically to your Wireless Network
IP Camera – running behind the WinGate software.
NOTE
NAT, or Network Address Translator (Virtual LAN): A hardware device currently being
developed and used to extend the Internet addresses already in use. NAT has been suggested as an
alternative to adopting IPv6 (IPng). It allows duplicate IP addresses to be used within a
corporation and unique addresses outside. It is defined in RFC 1631.
