Looking for help with my shop cam set up
 

I had a friend come over and spend nearly four hours only to discover she doesn't know squat about networking or cameras or much else for that matter! </rant>
I have my LAN working fine. I can access every componant with out any problems. I just can't figure out how to access my netcam remotely. I'm not 100% sure I have my router configured properly and am not clear on "port range forwarding".
I've got an Axis 210 netcam and a Linksys BESFR41 wired router.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'l give that a try.
Thanks

If she was hot, who cares?

more tech...less weenie

You can always ask me....

Dave

Cool Thanks....why doesn't it work?

Photos Kevin, we need photos! If she is hot then who cares and we can fix the camera later! :)

Have you tried http://192.168.0.1/ yet? You may have to go into the router setup and tell it to allow the camera to interface with the router...

Joe

Can you get Internet access at the neighbors place for a few minutes for testing? I'll drop by tomorrow and we'll get it running.

Dave

did that but still can't access it remotely. I'm not sure what "port Range" means in the port forwarding section

I can bring my lap top it has broadband capabilities

Any open wireless AP's around there? The point is to be able to test the remote video locally. No worries, it'll be running before you can say "lacquer thinner".

Dave

whats an "AP"?

Access Point. More commonly referred to as a wireless connection. ;)

Dave

Dammit Dave,

Do not tell Kevin ALL of the secret codes! :)

Good luck and get that puppy talking with everything tomorrow.

Joe

Do I at least get to know the secret handshake or do I have to be a total techweenie for that?

I'm pleading the fifth on this one... :p

Drop me a PM wiht the steps you've taken so far and I can get you going...

Actually if you log onto the Netgear setup page using the 198.... I posted above then most everything is on the setup menu.

Just takes some getting used to how Netgear works their routers. Sure Dave can get it running for you.

We have image!!!!
Dave came by today and in less than 5 minutes had everything working perfectly
Heres a live image
Seriously Dave, Thanks I appreciate it.

You are very welcome, Kevin!
