2.1.1.1 Basic Properties

Under Basic Properties you will find three options. 1) Device ID 2)System Firmware Version 3) Web UI version (see figure 2.1)

Figure 2.1

Device ID.This is the same ID as the one found on the sticker on the bottom of your camera. It is called the MAC ID. If there are many IP Cameras on your device list, you can cross check which camera is which by matching the sticker numbers of each camera with the ID numbers on the list. If, however, no ID number is shown on the IP Camera tool, it might be that it is being blocked by your firewall. Shut Firewall to allow access to your computer or as ID as a trusted site.

Note: There are two reference numbers. One is the Device MAC ID, the other is the WI-FI MAC ID, this too is on the sticker at the bottom of the camera. If this sticker is ever lost, you can recapture it by logging on to your host router and check the status, the numbers will be found there listed as the IP Camera WI-FI MAC ID.
