- Dec 11, 2018I'd put the camera in the DMZ of the XR500 and enable access from the WAN and that should do it.

What do you mean by 'as soon as I set to 4G'? I assume you mean on the camera. If it's working on the XR500 when connected via LAN, then is this not a question for the camera manufacturer if it's not working after going to 4G?
Apologies if I have misunderstood.

Ok, so:
On Netgear XR500
LAN Setup I reserved address to CCTV ip 10.0.0.1
Advanced settings/ port forwarding opened ports 554 & 8080 (External & internal)
Port Triggering CCTV :8080
On my BThub6
On Ethernet TAB Port 1 (connection devices) I used the XR500 to replace ip-address from my prior connection (i.e. the ip & mac address of Router)
To correct my own thought train earlier, I did open port on XR500 as the intentional 80 port that I always have used prior confilcted with another system on XR500 so chose the 8080
I do not think this is the correct way but is works, I would prefer clarification or another way to do it correctly (if this is not correct that is?) I had connected support by live chat the evening prior but could not help wih issue (they could but required $199 for years subscript for a brand new product?)
I confirm it does work correctly on both new iphones and SDK- hikvisions own software DVR Player https://www.hikvision.com/en/Support/Downloads/SDK
I could not connect via firefox or IE (thought firefox would break through with add-in but no joy.................
