Re: Setting up a webcam from behind a router

[Tim Collier]

I just recently had experience with this issue.  We have the iSight 
camera and are using a Netgear Modem.  My wife was unable to chat using 
vchat (a program for OS X that is sort of like cu-seeme).  I read some 
of the documentation on the router and on the product's web site (vchat 
that is) and I was directed to go to WAN Setup and set the default DMZ 
server to the local IP of her computer.  She is currently assigned 
192.168.0.3 as her IP.  I did it and now it all works perfectly.
Mind you, I am NO EXPERT on any of this....I just followed directions 
and was pleasantly surprised when it actually worked.

Dear List:
Recently I set up a D-Link DI-624 Wireless router for my home network. 
I am having problems trying to set up
my webcam, an Orange Micro iBot Pro, to work properly with ISPQ, a web 
chat app, from behind my router. I did
try the network connection tester in ISPQ, but after running its 
diagnostics it stated that ISPQ could work with
limitations. Specifically, I could reply to invitations from other 
users, but I could not initiate chat from my
location with remote users.

Can anyone offer any thoughts?

Roland :)
Exterminate all rational thought.
