I have setup a couple of wireless IP cameras. They are setup with static LAN IPs of192.168.1.81:81192.168.1.82:82I want to view at least one of them remotely, but can't figure out how to setup port forwarding, having tried multiple times and ways.I have a MI424WR, Rev.E.Any help would be appreciated.

It appears I can't access those ports above 80 from here at work, and therefore to make it work,I had to set it to HTTP, and port forward just one cam using only port 80.

Just a small correction: Verizon blocks Port 25 Outbound on Dynamic IP accounts.

Try using a different port, something higher such as 8888 or something more obscure in case those lower ports are being blocked. I'm sure some folks will reply that VZ is NOT blocking any ports, but give it a try, you got nothing to loose. Make sure your IP camera is set to accept the newer port as well.Jim

Unless that was a typo on the OP's part I was going to suggest using 192.168.1.1.

Actiontecs advanced port forwarding for FIOS and M1424W router. The link is a PDF from Actiontec that instructs you how to setup port forwarding.Hope you find what you need. nb

Thanks, but I've been through that with no success getting it to work.

Look like you know about this things I have a few IP cameras at home all connected to the router all set correct and I can see all the cameras via the the internet from anywhere in the world, the problem is when I desconnet one of the wireless camera from the router (unplug the wire and restart the camera) then the internet can't connect to the camera, do you have any suggestion? My router is actiontec MI424-wr rev-f

I think what's happening is, that you have your camera's doing dynamic ip or auto ip. you want to give your camera's their own static IP Addresses.

so go into your camera configuration menu and assign

192.168.1.200 camera 1

192.168.1.201 camera 2

192.168.1.202 camera 3

etc.....

Then go into the router, and re-do your port forwarding to these fixed static ip addresses, and then you shouldn't have that problem.
