Frequently Asked Questions
What is D-Link´s i2eye?
i2eye
TM
is a breakthrough communications video appliance that provides
IP videoconferencing and connects to any standard television. Simple to
install and use, the small unit sits on top of the television and contains a
video camera that can stream up to 30 frames per second over the Internet
to friends, family and business associates.
When connecting my DVC-1000 behind a router or rewall, what
ports do I need to open?
The VideoPhone needs ports 1720 (TCP) and ports 15328-15333 (TCP
and UDP) open to function properly. See the section Using the DVC-1000
with Routers, Gateways or Broadband Modems on page 43, or consult
your router’s documentation or your network administrator for help on doing
this.
I’ve seen videophones that connect using the phone line, and the
picture is always small and choppy. How is i2eye different?
i2eye connects over high-speed broadband, and it delivers up to 30
frames per second. Videophones using a slow analog plain old tele-
phone line can’t deliver smooth video pictures over their small LCD dis-
play. They show what appears to be a series of still pictures rather than
full motion video.
What is the D-Link Directory Service?
The D-Link Directory Service is a D-Link hosted server which allows you
to register a “phone number” with your DVC-1000 VideoPhone. When
someone with a DVC-1000 dials this “phone number”, your DVC-1000 will
ring and you will be able to accept a call. In the same manner you can call
others by dialing their “phone number”. This allows you to contact another
DVC-1000 without knowing its IP address. Any DVC-1000 connected to
a broadband modem will have the capability of using the Directory
Service.
Can I use the DVC-1000 with a computer and monitor instead of a
TV?
Yes. The DVC-1000 can be used with a computer and monitor instead
of a TV. However, you will need a TV Tuner / Video Capture device or a
video card that accepts video input from an RCA jack.
