topchips 0 Posted October 23, 2015 Hi Just use the DMZ service and add the ip of the cctv camera on there, otherwise check to make sure your default gateway is correct on the devices, also check with your ISP if they don't block ports Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssnapier 0 Posted October 23, 2015 If your cable modem has those kinds of menus, it is more than just cable modem. It appears to me that your cable modem is also a router so that means you need to forward it twice. Once from the cable modem the the TP-Link router and then from the TP-Link to the camera. On the cable modem you point traffic to the IP address of the TP link router and on the TP-link you point to the IP address of the camera/ NVR. I have to do this at my office too, it is a pain.
