Its very strange, Im pingin my IP from the command line (cmd) and i get no reply, however I surf the web and I see that my IP is active (the sites detect my IP)
Which IP are you referring to?
ASKER
The static IP my ISP has provided me, wich I use to browse the web
Sometimes, you can only see an IP address "one-way" from a router. Is your static address on your computer, on a router, or what?

The static IP problem seems to be solved. Now i can ping back myself.
Im using now a linksys router, these are the options I get in the settings:
Port forwarding:

I'm using a camera i bought on ebay, i dont even know the brand, its really good and has loads of features i can use in my lan... but i still cant use it from a remote location over the internet.
I've tried to do what you told me, using the port 1024 (by default it would assing the 80), changed it in the rotuer (internally and externally) pointing to the cam IP and is still not working.
I type into my broswer my IP:1024, if i use just my ip it would redirect me to my router.

Just so I'm clear, you have set up port 1024 on the camera setup, and you have set port 1024 on the external and internal in the router settings and gave it the camera's IP address as well?

I dont know why but I changed the default port (80) of the camera to the 1024 and did what you told me (single port forwarding, internal and external) and now it works wonders, I just type in my browser my public IP:port and I can access the cam flawlessly from anywhere!!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Cool! Enjoy!
