Using a Windows OS computer & Wireless router to find IP address

  1. NIGHTWAVE DIGITAL implements UPNP. UPNP is a discovery protocol that Windows uses to discover devices connected in the networks (e.g. printers). 
  2. Depending on your computer setup, you may be required to activate and accept the “discovery mode” for that network interface. 
  3. Sometimes there is a popup window asking the user to activate the discovery, if that happens, select “YES.” Otherwise, the UPNP discovery won’t work. 
  1. Make sure that the camera has a solid red LED. 
  2. Use your File Explorer to discover the camera (see Figure 18 for reference).
