How does iSpyConnect work?

When connecting locally, iSpyConnect detects that you are connecting from the same IP address (gateway) as iSpy so the web page you view accesses iSpy directly over your LAN - without going out to the web at all. This means that iSpyConnect is astonishingly fast at serving video and audio through the browser. You can access iSpyConnect from any computer on your local network in this way (as long as they all use the same gateway). If this is not working (you are getting timeouts) then ensure that the checkbox "Use LAN IP when available" is checked on your account page. If you are still having problems then check your firewall settings (iSpy will try to add itself to your firewall exclusion list automatically) - and failing that try disabling antivirus products or third party firewalls (like zonealarm).
