Making a LAN webcam "wireless"

Target

• Make a LAN webcam "wireless" and if possible visit the webcam from external

Requirements

• A fonera+ with LAN connector, this will place the Webcam in the secure "Myplace" environment.
• A LAN Webcam (level1 offers these for 88euro without microphone, 146euro with microphone)
• The Fonera+ connected to a Level-1 webcam (LAN access port):

• The fonera+ connected to the internet (WAN access port)

Configuration

• Configuration of the Webcam: "/test" is the password...also keep an eye on the ip it got...best is to use a static ip...

• Let's connect our laptop to thesame MyPlace wifi and connect to the ip of the webcam and it's url using the free videolan

• Let's make a screenshot of what we see

From the internet?

• You could use portforwarding on the GUI of the Fonera (connect to myplace via wifi and visit http://192.168.10.1)
• Under Advanced you will find "port forwarding"... portforward 554 towards 192.168.10.118 (could be another ip at your place).
• Forward on your internet router this port towards the fonera+ (status page of the Fonera+ will indicate which ip it has received from your internet router)
• Find out the ip adres of your internet connection and TRY FROM ANOTHER INTERNET CONNECTION TO REACH IT. (Will not work when inside your own network due to NetworkAdressTranslation(NAT)-issues.
  • Most Internet modems seem to support dyndns.org if you have a "dynamic" ip adres of your provider.
    • The webcam also offers this "ddns" possibility and will report the correct "public" ip of your internet modem!
  • Some Internet modems allow a lockdown so only certain ip's are allowed to connect to this port forwarding...
    • don't forget /TEST is the password...change it to something more secure... (it's not secured against sniffing...)
      • It's connected to "myplace" so people from FON_AP will not be able to "sniff" it unless you actively allow such connectivity to the lan in the "wifi settings" of your Fonera Managment portal (http://192.168.10.1)
