I am a little doubtful that the problem is port forwarding. That support link doesn't mention port forwarding and may only be describing ports that the camera device opens to the outside network and with bidirectional traffic, i.e., the router should not block outgoing requests on those ports from internal devices.
Otherwise, if port forwarding were required and internet hosts actually connect *into* your home network via those ports then a household could never have more than one of those devices. This is just a camera and you are not setting up a minecraft or other game server where multiple clients need to connect to your device.
Your camera is blinking green. Have you already reset and tried everything again per these instructions? Your camera device is connected via the main network, not a guest or other network, right? Do you have any security, Armor, etc. settings enabled?

Is this PDF the instructions for your camera and does it look like this, i.e., a cylinder thing that inserts and attaches to the bottom of your garage opener? What does your MyQ app say about the camera? For example does it recognize the camera so you added it to your account and it shows up in the app, just no video available?
