Accessing camera server from the internet

[Guest]

I have a Trendnet TV-IP200W camera server and a Netgear WGR614v5 router. I
have the camera set up and it works perfectly, that is, I can view it from
any computer in my house that is behind the router. I am unable to access
the camera from the internet. From a friend's house, I enter my ip address
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80 for the port. My router is set to forward port 80. Is
there something else I need to do or am forgetting? Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

If you're sure the router is configured properly and forwarding port 80 to
the correct address, your ISP may be filtering the common "server" ports.
Many do.

I have that cam
need to enable two port-forwards for it to work - in both the cam and
your router.
1 : Web Server - Default 80

2 : Transfer Image - Default 8481
