"Reset IP address at next boot", the default status is checked to eliminate incautious mistakes during installation. However it is very annoying to perform software installation whenever Network Camera starts. Once the network settings, especially the IP address, are correct, uncheck this option to use permanently. This option can also be disabled using the Installer program. Once the option is disabled, Network Camera will skip installation at the next boot and the Installer program will no longer find the installed units. That implies that Network Camera cannot be accessed if no one remembers the IP address, except by restoring factory default settings. However, with this option disabled Network Camera can automatically operate normally after restarting in case of losing power.

General
