BlueIris not connecting on Guest Network

Recommended Posts

I have two WiFi networks (using DD-WRT).

 

MyWiFi and MyWiFi_Guest. The MyWiFi_Guest network is Internet only, no access to local LAN.

 

I have a device on MyWiFi_Guest but I want to access Blue Iris through the Android App through the external IP.

 

I tried leaving the LAN IP in the server settings as blank. I tried putting the external IP in the server settings. I used a dynamic DNS as the external IP. None of them worked (Says unable to connect/resolve name).

 

If I connect to another WiFi network or use Mobile Data, it connects. If I'm connected to MyWiFi network, it connects.

 

If I'm connected to MyWiFi_Guest, I believe it keeps trying to use the local IP (which is of course disallowed) and so I can't connect. Even when I explicitly state the external IP to connect to.

 

 

I am open to other solutions. Like keeping Guest network active but allowing only that device access to the Camera PC.
