Re: port forwarding and security cameras

i second qasdfdsaq - DMZ is a no-no. internally, the camera will use a port for you to use to view the stream. you may be able to change this in some software that came with it. port forwarding is set on the router. this means you could connect externally to your external IP on any port you designate, which then forwards to the internal port you set (or is preset) for the camera. Putting anything in DMZ basically means that all ports to that device are unrestricted. you will not need to log onto a router to get to it as the router is just allowing the traffic through. There is a reason why people set things up in a certain way! there's a real irony in setting up security cameras without any security.
