Hi pmp6nl,

You can try the block services.

Block the port number that the IP cameras uses to access Internet. (For example port 553 for HTTPs websites and 80 for HTTP).

Check under UPnP table if your camera is showing and check for the port numbers it uses.

Hi pmp6nl,

I just want to verify that you want the IP cameras to still be connected to the network but no internet access, is that correct?
