I have a Edimax wireless ip cam streaming through my connection. I noticed on the old Sy router I could not see a connection from within the home connection, having to ring friends to see if it worked, but on the new white Sky router I can see from within too

I set my port to 8080 in the webcam interface and you need to set up the firewall rules to allow it through. I can take a screen shot of my settings and email them to you if you pm me your addy?

Hi
I'm back at this thing why its not working properly i'm stumped.
I got it to show up that port 81 was open last night and could get the camera up on mobile phone via 3g no probs, now its stopped working again and a scan on grc.com shows the port is now closed!
How can this happen and how can i get it to stay open?
Dmz is set to use the ip address of camera.

Have you tried another port?

Is the camera connected to the router directly, or via some other kit?

Or a non Sky router?

i have tried another non sky router netgear and it did the same, the camera is wireless.
It's working again just now but wondered why it keeps closing the port.

Perhaps the wireless connection is dropping out? Is the camera on a fixed IP address?

Just an update on the camera thing, have changed to the netgear router and its working fine for past few weeks.
I had tried this netgear one before but thats when we found a line fault which is now fixed.
Thanks for the help guys.
