Help

Through the Help screen, you’ll find links to additional resources for the Camera and its Utility. If you click the Help tab directly from the Welcome screen, then you will see the User Help screen and will only be able to access these resources. If you first log in to access the Camera’s Setup and then click the Help tab, you will see the Administrator Help screen. You will be able to restore factory defaults and upgrade the Camera’s firmware.

Note: The appearance and features of the Help screen will vary depending on whether you have logged in first to access the Setup.

Setup. Click any of the topics in the bar on the left to get help information.

Linksys Support Page - Download Latest Viewer/Recorder Utility. Click this link to download the most recent version of the Viewer & Recorder Utility from the Linksys website, www.linksys.com.

Click here to learn how to configure Port Forwarding in your Linksys Router. If you are going to use the SoloLink DDNS Service, you need to set up port forwarding on your router. For instructions on how to configure a Linksys router, click this link. If you have a different router, refer to your router’s documentation.

Online User Guide in PDF Format and Adobe website (software for viewing PDF documents). Click the Online User Guide in PDF Format link to view the latest version of the Camera’s user guide. It will be in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document File (.pdf) format, so you will need Acrobat Reader to view this pdf. If you do not have the Acrobat Reader, click the Adobe website link to download it.

Restore Factory Defaults. To restore the Camera’s factory default settings, click the Restore Defaults button.

Note: When you restore the Camera’s factory defaults, you will lose the settings you have changed.

Firmware. New firmware versions are posted at www.linksys.com and can be downloaded for free. If the Camera is functioning well, there is no need to download a newer firmware version, unless that version has a new feature that you want to use. Loading new firmware onto the Camera does not always enhance its performance.

Note: When you upgrade the Camera’s firmware, you may lose the settings you have changed.
