Help: Port Forwarding to view IP Camera (before I go insane!)

[FordGT90Concept]

Yes done, and SSID was never changed.
Btw now I have only WEP - and a crappy password which I really want to change (it was the only method my ISP found to get my IP camera (aka baby monitor) to work... http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/t...before-i-go-insane.219536/page-2#post-3422636



Done that too... nothing..

WEP might be the problem...

Can you wire the camera?

With wire it works well.

On wifi it works only if router security is no higher than WEP.

Finally they got the camera working, but they had to change the router's security to be only WEP to do so
They told me the camera doesn't support any higher wifi security...

Can you confirm that with Eye4? I broke out my HooToo last night (similar camera) and can't get it on Wifi. Maybe a similar problem...

Edit: Documentation on my HooToo says it does support WPA2

I'd leave it wired and change the router security to WPA2. WEP can be cracked in a matter of seconds...it's practically unsecure. WPA2 should fix the problems with your Lumia.

WEP? That's basically like leaving the spare key to your house under the welcome mat... it seems your router is quite shoddy, you may want to invest in something a bit better.

I can't do that because I use the cam as a baby monitor, I have to change its place to where the baby is.
The Lumia's problems started way before I switched to WEP.

The router is my ISP's. I could get a second router but I really can't afford to spend more money right now, especially since I don't know if it'll solve the problem.
I'm more thinking the ISP tech found an easy way out by changing it to WEP, telling me that it was the cam which doesn't support WPA2.

The router's got intrusion detection, and it can't be disabled. I told them that I noticed that the router was detecting the camera as an intrusion since whenever I tried it on Wifi (while on WPA2) I'd get like 200 intrusion detections within minutes.
But I don't think they're allowed to disable intrusion detection. I know I can but only by changing the router's firmware, and that way it would no longer work with my ISP and I'd end up without internet.
