Port Forwarding issues
Wan IP address is 172.103.xxx.xx
1. Did enable "remote management" on port 8843
When I check if the port is open, yes it is. When I go to 172.103.xxx.xx:8843 from my home network I do get...
I have figured what it was.
The IP Camera network settings was done properly. The gateway and DNS IPs was left from the previous router. Thats why it did locally but not remotely.
HTTP://172.x.x.x:1001 or HTTPS
in this case the reason is not URL but the fact that the port 1001 is still considered to be closed. why would it be closed if camera does respond on this port from local network and port forwarding is set for the port?

Could it be somehow related to router mode? My is in router mode. maybe I should change it to Bridge or AP?
Well, remote management on port 8443 works, the camera does respond on its port 1001 in local network, port 1001 is forawrded. I wonder, what could be the reson for the port to be still closed?
if camera response on 1001 localy, does it mean it has to respond on the same port from outside?

No. Leave it in router mode.

I wonder, what could be the reson for the port to be still closed?Did you update firmware from 1.0.4.30 or earler to anything later? If so, the port forwarding settings are incompatible. You would be advised to do a factory reset to wipe out any old, incompatible settings. Reconfigure the settings by hand. Do not restore settings from a backup file because the file is incompatible, too.
if camera response on 1001 localy, does it mean it has to respond on the same port from outside?No. For example, you can set up a port forwarding rule to forward from external port 2001 to internal port 1001. You would then point your browser to http://172.x.x.x:2001.

Yes it did updated to V1.0.5.64_1.1.88 before I did set any settings. Do I still have to reset?
