If you're using the DDNS service, verify that those settings are also correct. Also, make sure the setting for “Default gateway” on the “Network” page is configured correctly.

What to do if authentication window is displayed repeatedly on Panasonic WV-SPN311 Security Camera?
- L
  Laura SandersAug 26, 2025
  If the authentication window appears repeatedly, it could be due to a change in the user name or password. This happens when you change the user name and password of another user logging into the camera on another web browser. The authentication window will be displayed each time the screen is changed or refreshed. Also, if you've changed the [Authentication] setting, close the web browser and access the camera again.

  If it takes a long time to display the screen, it might be because you are accessing the camera in HTTPS mode. The refresh interval becomes slower in this mode due to decode procession.

Why can't I access the camera via the URL of the “Viewnetcam.com” service for my Panasonic Security Camera?
- A
  Ann BakerSep 8, 2025
  To resolve the issue, check if the global address of the camera (or router) is notified to the “Viewnetcam.com” service server. Log into the “My Account” page of the “Viewnetcam.com” website (http://www.viewnetcam.com/) to check the information of the registered camera. If the global address is not displayed for the IP address, access the camera, and register the user information for the “Viewnetcam.com” service on the [Advanced] tab on the “Network” page of the setup menu. In addition, check the “Status” of “Viewnetcam.com” (on the [Status] tab) and the system log (on the [System log] tab) of the “Maintenance” page of the setup menu.
