PeteZahut Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Where are you trying to view it from? If it is from an external computer off your own network, i.e. a work computer, the ports for the stream may be blocked. Can you see it from another computer on your network? Perhaps a description of the problem you are seeing and the setup you have might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAm Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Also make sure the streaming port is open if you're behind a router. I know you said it was working to begin with but I had one that did the same thing. Worked for weeks then all of a sudden didn't. After some troubleshooting I found I never had the right port open. Not sure how it worked to begin with. What software are you using to stream it? Please don't say it's x10 software. I found the easist to use is Simple Cam but the one I like the best is TinCam.

SanJuanWorm Posted June 9, 2007 Author Share Posted June 9, 2007 Its a linksys cam. I have it hooked up through my network. I can see it if i type the IP in the browser. Now i set it up for port 1024 and port forwarded 1024 to 1024 and assigned teh camera IP and enabled. Now i dont know wtf is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAm Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 are you adding the port number when you try to connect from a browser? ie; http://xxx.xxx.xx.x:1024 I would try using port 8080 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAm Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 rotflmao, that has to be the best reason for a cam yet. Can't wait until daylight. Does the first person to give you a description of the dog get a free box of flies? Glad my suggestion helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyangler Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Not in Cal, not a wireless expert. But OMG is that funny! I applaud your efforts to apply the hi tech to your, uh, earthly problem. Along those lines, a friend spent weeks landscaping his hilly front yard, setting boulders, hand placing stones, planting shrubs and flowers. Then along comes a thief and starts stealing his stones! Imagine what the local police had to say when he called them about the case of the missing rocks. No time for that. So he bought himself a camera and sure enough he catches the thief. Turns out to be the neighbor directly across the street. Turns out she has mental problems. Kinda took the wind out of the Rock Justice sails, but she gave them all back.

LynnF Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I gotta get one of those to spy on my 13 year old. I think DD really got one to spy on Rusty. Or his wife. In which case, that's pretty sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
