Hi Daniel,
Can you PM e a screenshot of your Inbound Rules? Did you try my suggestion to use Translate to port number?
Thanks,
Hi Guy's,
Sorry about the delay.
It does work when translating all ports to port 80.
What issue can this cause?
Odd that you can simply open ports!
Thanks
Daniel
Hello danieljgor,
This confirms my suspicion, you can open the cameras by translating to port 80 because only port 80 (HTTP) is defined on your cameras. If you can change the ports the camera(s) are using then there is no need to translate.
Thanks,
