Ok. Here goes my prob. I have a netopia static dsl modem/router. I set my desk pc,
security camera pc, internet jukebox, and wireless router to static ip’s. Then I went into lynksys config page and configured router under operating mode as a ROUTER, not gateway. And set DHCP server on, but assigned static ip address for the router using subnet, gateway, and dns from isp/netopia router config.
OK. So, life is good I think. No more netopia modem disconnects. BUT now I can’t connect to my camera’s.
My cameras are connected to pc with a static ip. When I attempt to access through ftp or through DDNS camera software, it shows the gateway NOT the ip address that I assigned it statically. Hence, 99.169.125.185 static assigned, 99.169.125.190 shows up instead which IS MY GATEWAY. ipconfig /all shows correct, but whatismyip.com shows the gateway.
I should be able to type in browser 99.169.125.185:7701 and view camera but it does not work. Any brainstorming is appreciated. Thanks in advance for even reading this.
