Using the Configuration Menu (continued)

Main Screen > Settings > Network > Public IP Address

This screen allows you to configure, view, or edit the VideoPhone’s public IP Address.

If you are sharing a broadband connection with another device (such as a PC), you typically will need a router to accomplish the sharing of the connection. Your router will usually have a Network Address Translation (NAT) mode installed. The NAT affects the IP address of the DVC-1000 and any other devices sharing your Internet Connection.

See the glossary on page 44 for a description of a NAT.

Auto-detect public IP Address -

Use Private IP Address -

Specify public IP-

Public IP address-

This is the default and recommended setting. If the DVC-1000 is behind a NAT, and you leave this checkbox selected, the VideoPhone will automatically use your public IP Address for placing and receiving calls. On the majority of Cable and DSL broadband systems leaving this checked will result in simplified installation and use.

(Optional) Select this checkbox if you want to use your VideoPhone within a private network (LAN). If your IP Address is private, the VideoPhone will not be able to place or receive calls outside the private network.

(Optional) Select this checkbox if you want to manually change the DVC-1000 VideoPhone’s public IP Address.

Using the number pad on the remote or the on-screen keyboard, enter the public IP Address. (Only available when Specify public IP is selected.)
