Okay let me see if I can try to explain this so someone can understand me.
I am on DSL and just recently got a new Router.
Well my web camera that I use for a website worked fine on the old router.
I didn’t change any settings in my DSL modem.
So this new router is a LINKSYS. I am NOT connected to it wirelessly.
Here is the error message I get when testing my web camera to see if it can be accessed by the viewers at the website I use it.
Error: Cannot connect to your WebCam (Connection refused or aborted – port 81). Possible reasons:- The IP address you specified for incoming connections (on the ‘Start Session’ page on our site) is not the correct one.
- Your network is using non-routable IPs but port redirection is not configured properly. Contact your network administrator for details.
- Your computer/network or your Internet Service Provider is using a security software (possible firewall) that blocks connections to your video port. Try to change the video port (More->Software options->Network->Video port) in CC WebCam software.
Okay so before I hooked up this new router… I was using the old one (same brand). I was connecting my camera via port 81 just fine. With no problems.Could someone help me configure my router so that it wont interfere with my web camera.
I don’t want my router to have a fire wall on or anything “blocked”… I want it to let my momdem take care of that.
I just want the router to serve ONE purpose and thats to allow others in the home to connect into my dsl.
Please Help
