[quote=“JOD, post:4, topic:169279”]If you have the .Jpeg working, (UN, PW, IP & port set correctly)
Add: %2Fvideostream.cgi into the DirectStreamingURL box and hit save.

jpeg is working, %2Fvideostream.cgi is in the url box.
I can stream ok when i am browsing from my own network but not when i try to stream from another network 9Starbucks etc.)
I guess I am having trouble trying to set my port forwarding correctly.
It needs to be in the DirectStreamingURL box, but I’m guessing that’s what you meant.

Through Vera a browser or the camera software?

Check that your IP:Port setups in the camera, Vera and your router all match.
Port 80 is the factory default for this camera.

Yes, it is in the “DirectStreamingURL box”
I can stream through vera browser when I am on my own network but not on another network. and it works through the camera software too.
They are all set to port 80.
Do i need to forward port 80? that is open already. I have been trying to forward port 3482 in every way i can think of.
I am still unable to get the streaming to work through Vera from a remote location. I hooked up through my neighbors network on one pc and my own on the other so i can test what i try.
I have tried everything except for what works. disabling router firewall. tried all kinds of port forwarding
When I go to “stream” on the “setting” tab the “up/down/left/right/zoom in/zoomout” buttons appear but no picture. The buttons also control the camera on this tab (“settings”
Are you able to view the camera image remotely via a browser and the Foscam software?
If you checked the box while setting the camera up, a power cycle of the camera will email you the link.
If you don’t get an image, that should rule Vera out (for now) as being the issue.
If you do get an image via the browser, hmmm…Double check the Un, Pw, IP & port in Vera, which I’m sure you’ve already done…
I re-read your 1st post about port forwarding. Make sure you set the same port in the camera, Vera and your router.
See screen shots. If you have checked the box to send you an email, anytime the camera is power cycled, you will receive an email with the MAC/IP/port URL.
Something like this:[code]000DF6K28372(Cam 1)'s url is http://59.133.18.127:56[/code]
The camera's have a built in server and it's the area you need to access to enter a UN/PW, static IP & port. DHCP is the default along with port 80.
So if the Foscam port is "80 by default then do i just input the ip:port in Vera and forward port 80 in my router?
You would need to port forward 80 to the camera, which if it's DHCP, you may be changing the router's rules each time the camera is power cycled. I suggest you set the camera to a static and change the port.
I am able to view the streaming camera from an outside/remote network using the Foscam GUI/software but am still unable to get it to stream using the MIOS interface.
OK, at least you know it works. so now we know the problem is within Vera’s setup (who’d a thunk that? ;D) there are two area’s for Vera that accept the Username & Password (one area fills in the other, I forget which) but only one works so double check both areas are filled in and correct.
One area under the Settings tab, the other under the Advanced tab. See screen shots.
Confirm your IP:port is correct.
I had the same issue and now it’s suddenly working. What I did was putting the camera on ethernet cable instead of wireless. Give it a try, atleast in the name of science ;D

Fingers crossed you’ll be all set.

All that stuff looks fine. I even tried crossing my fingers but no luck
Could the Luup file (from the panasonic file) I made be the issue?
Just the reference under the Advanced tab is enough.
I’m not sure about anything now, but If your router lets you through with the Foscam app, I doubt it’s blocking for Vera since the destination is the same, but maybe some network guru’s can chime in…
Another thought. My router uses Mac addresses for port forwarding, are you using port forward to the IP or the Mac?
Are you only using the IP:port and not the Mac within Vera?
