WebEye is a Web server. WebEye can be assigned to with a private IP address. However WebEye should be designated as a local server. A network that has a fixed IP address is normally equipped with a router and consists local network with various private IP addresses. In this case, all the devices connected on the local network are assigned with private IP addresses. However, all the devices communicate with remote devices using a fixed IP address. Router does convert private IP address into fixed IP address, and have local devices access to remote devices. This function is called as NAT(Network Address Translation). When you configure a router, you can designate a local device as a local server among all the devices. And you have to key in WebEyes IP address in the blank for the local server address. Otherwise, you cannot access WebEye from remote network. This case happens often when you install WebEye on a local network where a PC is already designated as proxy server.
