I have a Bipac 8800NL and would like to access my bird cam through it. My Cam is on a dedicated IP address, internally I connect to it via 192.168.1.123, I set up a Virtual Server on my Bipac pointing ports 8080 on my external interface to 192.168.1.123 port 80, when I browse to my external IP address i get the router (as expected) and when I browse to the external address with port 8080 it directs me to the bird cam as expected, but, when I am not at home, if I enter my external IP i get the router (as expected) but if I add the 8080 ports I get nothing?
I think I must have missed something, I did get it working a few weeks ago but reset my router due to other configuration issues I had at the time, and whenever I try to set it up again, it appears to work when I'm at home (on the external IP Address) but not when I'm away from home.

Re: Bipac 8800NL port forwarding
Have you selected the correct 'Interface' when setting up the Virtual server rules eg PPPoA for ADSL, PPPoE for VDSL??filfish wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2018 8:54 am I have a Bipac 8800NL and would like to access my bird cam through it.
