Ok, we have a weird situation where we live. The internet comes into the main building and then we all have our routers (I have Airport Extreme) and we connect into that internet. I do have the main IP address (found via online search) for the entire complex.

*Edit - The router says it is in Double NAT mode

Now when I try to hook up my IP camera I followed all the directions for NAT port forwarding but when I look at my IP address under in Airport utility under the IPv4 it gives me a local internal 10.0.??? not my external IP address.

No matter what I do, I can't open the correct ports so I can see my camera when disconnected from my home router.



How can I fix this?



Thanks [​IMG]

I don't know whether it will solve your problem, but you can cure the double NAT by switching your router to bridge mode.

I don't think you need to worry about anything in front of "your" router. Have you tried by just using your router information and starting from there?
