The fastest way to connect camera to phone remotely

Connecting the camera to your phone remotely can help you monitor activities at home when you are away. Or for businesses, managers can remotely monitor everything happening at the restaurant, office, etc. to manage employee work activities and monitor activities taking place there.

How to connect camera to phone remotely

The way to connect the camera to the phone remotely is that you must have the IP address of the camera. This is the key for you to be able to view the camera from computers and phones from anywhere.

Each camera has only one IP address. That is why the camera can connect remotely to the router via that IP address. This is also why wireless cameras need a network cable for initial setup, but only need an IP address to connect to the home router network.

However, there are now many camera devices that allow users to access the camera remotely using P2P technology. P2P-enabled cameras allow users to view the camera directly by entering a unique number and ID using a computer and phone software.
