Smann Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I set mine up, they are Linksys. on my router set up I entered the the cams as port 1024 and 1025. My AquaIII is on port 80, I spent several hrs reading forum on the Dyndns site and came up with this. enter your apex dyn address this way xxxxxxxx.dyndns.org:1024 and mine worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grassi Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 You also have to configure the port forwarding section of your router to point at your cam's IP address Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smann Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Thats all listed in the new routers, just fill in the info. Mine was under gaming devices, the cam IP is shown in the cam program. Also you can run test on the dyndns website to check the connection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
