I have an Internet Security Camera that only connects to an Ethernet cable and a powercord. I have it set up through my router, (it gives it IP 192.168.1.3) I can access this camera from within my network; but how can I access this from the Internet? That 192. number obviously isn't it's real IP number it's what the router gives it. So what do I do?
Answer
First you will need to determine what port number the camera is configured to use for access. Not knowing your make of the camera I can only speculate what features are available. If it has a built in web engine then you will need to go into the settings and find the port # ie:8000, 8080 etc etc. In your router you will need to set the port forwarding to the camera's IP address and that port number. Some camera clients use more than one port for other features so include those in your forwarding if you are planning to use the camera's software and not a web browser. Lastly it is likely you have a dynamic ip address meaning that your isp issues your IP address on a lease...some for hours, days others for months and the IP could and most likely change. If you want to always check your IP address before you go (hopefully it won't change while ur out) then disregard the following and you are done. However you can go to some of the available dns service sites like http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/
which allows you to install software that automatically updates your ip address to a free domain name. So when you are out you would type in the domain name vs the ip. ie: theallseeingeye.dyndns.org which would resolve to your external ip address (you can replace the dyndns.org from a list they have available) I have several dlinks that already have dynamic dns options available so check your settings. Hope this helps. Good Luck

Cheap security camera setup?

I need something real cheap, its for outside. I'm fine with using a webcam if that'll work
I've had to deal with police, and want to know from inside if someone is outside.
