Browse All TopicsI have a buffalo WHR-G125 wireless router with dd-wrt flashed, and I have an IP CAM, and I have applied the dynamic dns (abc.myip.com) to maintain a easy to remember url to access my ip cam, where its ip in my network is 192.168.1.102 and using port 1234, I would like to know how can I set (should I use port forwarding?) in the router in order to access my web cam under abc.myip.com? For now, I have set like as following, but I think I am not in the right track
router:
DMZ - Set 192.168.1.102
IP Cam:
IP: 192.168.1.102
Port: 1234
And now, if I go to abc.myip.com:1234, I can access my cam, but i am not sure if I can just do it using abc.myip.com?? I have tried, but if I type this url without any port, it will go directly to my router admin console. Please advice, all experts.
Thanks !!!
