Obviously, we recommend our Extended Transmission line of POE switches here. But I'd like to see it in IP Cam Viewer as it is one of the reasons I bought the app.The first thing you want to do is to get a POE switch. NOTE: Works fine in any web browser, including any web browser (default or Dolphin or Opera 5 Mini) on my Nexus One phone. But I'd like to see it in IP Cam Viewer as it is one of the reasons I bought the app. I've tried 0,1 and 2.Īny idea what's going wrong? I have supplied the correct userid and password, too, of course. The only detail I'm not sure of is the number to put in the for the camera. It can't see either of them via IP Cam Viewer set to WebcamXP and with all correct details supplied.

I have two cameras (MS Lifecam VX3000 and Logitech Notecam 3500 (something like that).

I've never been able to successfully talk to my webcamxp cameras with IP Cam Viewer on Android 1.6 (HTC Magic) or 2.1 (Nexus One).over wifi or mobile data. I can happily access my webcam's remotely via web browser, but IP Cam Viewer (paid version) always says it failed to get an image.

I have WebcamXP v5.x running on Windows Vista. In the IP Cam Viewer app for Android, select the 'WebcamXP' or 'Yawcam', or 'EvoCam' type. Once the USB webcam is available using a browser, then following the same steps as an IP camera to get that camera available from the internet. You can try or for Windows, or for Apple.

The app supports some proprietary camera http redirect services but it's best to use a real dynamic dns. You can tell my putting the url to access the camera into a browser and if it changes to a numeric IP address, then it just did a cheap http redirect. Some cameras come with a built-in 'dynamic dns' hostname but that is often a cheap http redirect and NOT a true dynamic dns. More detailed instructions are available at: Great, now configure IP Cam Viewer to see your camera(s) once and your cameras will come up when the app is launched. Finally, make sure you can now view the camera using a browser from the outside (try a friend's house). associates an address like '' to my router's IP address.ĥ. Basically, I configure the router to report it's external IP address to the any time it's IP address changes.

I use but there are many others that are free also (i.e.

Most internet service providers now give out dynamic IP addresses to your router so next, you need to use a dynamic dns service so people outside can locate your router (and camera). Once this step is done, you can now access your camera from outside using the external ip and port 10123.

Setup your router to allow port forwarding from a high port like 10123 on it's external interface to the camera's IP address and port 80. Now that your camera has a static IP address visible from inside your house, you need to make it visible from outside the house. Alternatively, you can just set the camera to a 192.x.x.x IP that is outside the range of the DHCP range.ģ.

If your camera is using DHCP, then setup your router so that it always gives the same static IP address for the camera based on it's MAC address (will be visible from the router). If your camera is using DHCP then you'll have to check your router for which IP address it is using (or use the manufacturer's tool to find the camera).Ģ. Make sure you can view your IP Camera from inside your house using a web browser. See the steps below to setup with a free dynamic dns service like .Īlternatively, if you prefer to do things manually, see the steps below for:ġ. Remember, addresses starting with 192.x.x.x and 10.x.x.x are internal ip addresses and are not route-able over the internet (just about every house/business uses those addresses). They can view over wifi but can't view over 3g because their ISP keeps changing their wan ip address. Many people have asked me how they can view their IP Camera(s) away from home.
