Http port not opening?

Recommended Posts

I'm playing around with a new camera and I have the TCP port opened no problem. I can view the camera through my ddns server on my iphone on

3G and canyouseem.org says my port is open. BUT, my http (web) port just does not either open or does not see my IP camera. I've tried alot of

different ports, I've turned off my firewall, I've reset the camera. I would like to be able to view this camera via IE from the outside. Any suggestions or

ideas?

OK, I tried entering the port 8000 while logged into the camera through IE and saved it. I already had that port open in my router, and when I went to

canyouseeme.or, it showed me a successful open. It looks like if you use PSS to enter port, somehow, it doesn't stay into the camera? Either way, it's working now.

Not enought information, what's the camera brand? Some cameras require more than one port to be opened for them to work remotely. For example, ACTi cameras require 3 ports to be open, not just the HTTP port. Your camera manfucaturer should provide a manual that tells you what to do.

This camera only needs http and tcp. I got it working though. For some reason, http port was not accepting the change in pss. Once I entered what I want it to be

in explorer, than it saved and it worked fine.
