Why is my Axis 207W accessible locally, but not externally?
- M
  Mr. David PerryAug 21, 2025
  If your Axis Security Camera is accessible on your local network but not externally, there are several potential causes. First, the broadband router configuration may need adjustment; enable the NAT-traversal feature to automatically configure the router for camera access. Second, your internet firewall might be blocking access, so check with your system administrator. Finally, verify if you need to configure the default router settings.

Why can't I access my Axis 207W on the wireless network from a browser?
- J
  James SawyerAug 22, 2025
  If you cannot access your Axis Security Camera on the wireless network from a browser, it could be due to several reasons. The wireless settings in the camera might not match those in the wireless access point, so connect the network cable and ensure the SSID and security settings are identical in both. Also, check that the wireless access point supports and has enabled at least one of the supported protocols. Finally, the wireless access point may require MAC address registration, so verify if the camera’s MAC address needs to be registered before accessing the wireless network.

  Melissa AllenAug 25, 2025
  If you cannot access your Axis Security Camera from a browser and the IP address has been changed by DHCP, try these steps: 1) Move the camera to an isolated network or one without a DHCP or BOOTP server, then reset the IP address using the AXIS IP Utility or ARP/Ping commands. 2) Access the unit and disable DHCP in the TCP/IP settings, then return the unit to the main network. 3) Alternatively, if a dynamic IP address via DHCP or BOOTP is required, select the necessary service and configure IP address change notification from the network settings.

  Rachel WalkerAug 28, 2025
  If you're experiencing a lower frame rate than expected with your Axis Security Camera, here are several things to check: * Reduce the number of applications running on the client computer. * Limit the number of simultaneous viewers. * Ensure sufficient bandwidth is available by checking with the system administrator. * In the AMC control panel applet (MPEG-4 tab), verify that video processing is not set to 'Decode only I frames'. * Try lowering the image resolution.

What to do if the IP address of my Axis 207W Security Camera is being used by another device?
- D
  Dillon TranAug 31, 2025
  If the IP address is being used by another device, disconnect the Axis Security Camera from the network and run the Ping command. If you receive a reply from the IP address, it means another device is using the IP address. Obtain a new IP address and reinstall the unit. If you see 'Request timed out', the IP address is available. In this case, check all cabling and reinstall the unit.

  For poor rendering of MPEG-4 images from your Axis Security Camera, ensure the color depth is set to 16-bit or 32-bit on the clients. If text overlays are blurred or there are other rendering problems, enable Advanced Video Rendering from the MPEG-4 tab in the AMC control panel applet. Also, make sure your graphics card is using the latest device driver.
