How do I setup a network for IP Cameras through the internet?

[integraoligist]

Hi all,
I have a set of 5 IP cameras running on a server at my shop, I am using the AXXON software to run it. When I install the Axxon Client software on my laptop on connect wirelessly while in the shop, it automatically sees the server and connects.

However, when I bring my laptop home it does not connect (obviously). Instead of the servers name (which is what it looks at while on the network) I can input an IP address instead.

So I input the IP of the WAN the server is on (found via IPChicken.com) and try to connect... it does not.

The router the server is connected to is a Trendnet TEW-652BRP if that makes a difference.

Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!

Hello and welcome to Tom's Hardware Forums.

Are you separating the IP addresses with a comma?

Separating what IP addresses? I'm only trying to connect using the WAN IP.

Your setup might be different from mine but I have to go all the way to the internal IP, separating the external IP from the internal one I fixed for my camera. The more cameras you have, the more internal IPs you need to allocate. The URL syntax is then similar to- 176.255.***.**,192.168.1.16.
