Can't view IP cam externally

I'm having problem in doing a port forwarding can can't seem to get the video to get thru (port 5000?). Hope you can help. I'm trying to access my DCS950G remotely from outside my home (external WAN) but am having problem in doing port forwarding the IP cam to my wireless router. I have done a port forwarding of the camera (fixed IP within my own router and have used port 80. There's something else about port 5000 and 5001?

thanks.

Peter

Follow The Process:-
1.Visit https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports
input the port 5000 and check is it open or not, if it is not open it means you need to check port forwarding in your main internet router/modem.
2. By Default Routers/Modems Http port it 80. so you need to change ip camera http port 80 to 81 and do port forwarding and to view on android devices check another ports in ip camera network settings. so same port forwarding and check in yougetsignal website.

SOURCE: HN9000 won't pass remote services

On the Router check if you have UPnP enabled, if yes then Disabel it that should fix the NAT issue and then you need to open the port number 1723,3389. Once these ports are opened then you will be able to access it on the VPN and Remote Desktop Provided you have a WAN IP Address from your ISP. also check the Firmware of the router if its updated or not.

SOURCE: port forwarding

As i remember all port forwarding was under Virtual Server configuration. But you need to check maybe web cam is using more then 1 port. Try to play with netstat to see, to which ports Connection establishing when you are connecting to cam.

SOURCE: Can't access outside network

I had all the other port forward settings correct, but I noticed that the default gateway was set to 0.0.0.0 instead of 192.168.0.1, in the camera settings. This threw me as I could connect easily within the network, and I thought all those settings were good. I guess it totally makes sense though. No gateway, no way to get outside the network. After I changed that, it came right up outside the network. Hope this helps someone...

I'm not sure if you are still looking for the answer, but I think the problem may be that you need to enter the PUBLIC IP address of the modem at the remote end instead of the PRIVATE (ie. 192.168.1.x) IP that was actually assigned to the DVR. It works best if you assign a static IP to the DVR on the remote end and enter that IP into the router's DMZ. You might also want to get a free account at dyndns.net and setup a FQDN for your business router/modem. That way you can connect to it using something like "mybusiness.homeip.net" instead of an IP address, and if the IP changes it will still find it. You will also have to configure your modem at the business to automatically update the dyndns server when the IP changes.

I just installed my wyze cam, but when I go outside to wacth in my phone doesn't turn on in the phone

For connection issues, make sure that you have your router given a port forward for your webcam. Otherwise you can't connect it.

You need to know your IP address of the webcam and you need to know your external webcam address.
Log in into your router and go to port forwarding. The webcam wil probably have a stream over port 80. So fill in the IP address of your webcam and with TCP port 80. Then if you log into your phone, you can access it via your external IP address.

I have an edimax IC 7000 pt IP camera, I am having problems getting it to work using port forwarding..I have the latest sw & firmware loaded but seem to be going around in...

You have forward 2 ports.
forward port 80
forward port 443
make sure you have typed in the proper ip address for your camera,
ie. check the admin thingy to get your ip address for the cam.
then check if you can access it locally, then call a friend to see if they can access it remotely.

Netopia NAT

I know that most Netopia's I've worked with have been able to port forward single or ranges of ports to numerous internals from numerous externals.

Address Translation needs to be on.
IP Passthrough has to be off.
Then in NAT Easy Servers, setup port forwards and specify the external IP, internal IP, and ports (can forward all).

Port forwarding

try to use another port number aside from 8080, like 3000 or 5000. make sure that the ip address set on the router is the ip address of your camera (note: it should be set to static).

hope this'll help you

Can't access my computer onthe internet

  1. Make sure that your ISP is not blocking port 80. You can check that here. (Otherwise switch to another port like 8080 or 805)
  2. Have you setup your DDNS service on your router or ensured by other means that no-ip has your up-to-date external IP? (Make sure that your external IP matches the entry at no-ip.com!)
  3. Set your LAN server to a static IP address
  4. Make sure that port forwarding is enabled and pointing to your server.
    - That means: if you run a webserver on port 80, you have to set the external port to 80 and leave the internal blank, unless your internal server listens on a different port.
If this does not help, what exactly do your mean by "Fail to connect"? Is it a 404 error? Please provide details.

I think this might be interesting for some other people too. So please come back and leave a comment!

Good luck!
