The camera should be connected to the router’s LAN port, not
the WAN port.
Connect your smartphone to the router’s WIFI. For example, if
you connect the camera to the router with WIFI name "Love
Virtual Reality ", your phone should also connect to the WIFI
named “Love Virtual Reality”. You can verify this by checking the
WIFI connection in your phone’s settings.
