Dns – Setting up Dynamic DNS for Wireless Cameras And Accessing them Remotely

dynamic-dnsip camera

I've been trying to set up two TP LINK wireless N cameras that I bought so that I can see them remotely.

I've set it up so that each has it's own ip address (192…105/192…106) and I can access them if I type that into the browser of a local computer

The thing is that I don't know how to access them from another remote PC.

My current setup is a a each camera connected to the router which then connects to the modem.

When I set up the Dynamic DNS, and I access the "webpage" for my IP through a remote computer, it just goes to the configuration page of the modem. I have no idea how to make it go to the router or to the cameras.

the router has its own ip range of 192.168.1.x while the modem has 192.168.2.x

To access the cameras I type into the web browser: 192.168.1.114:100 on the local computer

but I have no idea how to get there through the webpage of my Dynamic DNS remotely.

Mike,

My guess is that your Modem has router capabilities and it would need to be bridged with your router. Once bridged you would then be able to port forward your router to the correct internal IP address and then port 102 in your example would be accessible by typing in the host.domain.com:102 or your IP address 72.156.52.12:102.

You have another option and that would be to set up port forwarding in your modem to allow port 102 to your router, what you said was 192.168.1.x then in your router port forward the port 102 for the camera's internal IP address.

TP-Link routers have an integrated DDNS that supports No-IP.com. If you get the port forwarding set up correctly, it should work flawlessly.

Let me know if you have any additional questions.
