On the Add Port Forwarding Rule page, in the Protocol pull-down, are you selecting "HTTP" or "User Defined" from the list?
If your web cam is on port 80, then you should simply select "HTTP" from the protocols list.
If your web cam is on other than port 80, then you should select "user defined", which will take you to the Edit Service page.
At this point you would give the service a name (e.g. "Web Cam") and select New Server Ports.  This will take you to the the Edit Service Server Ports page. This is the page that has the Protocol pull-down with TCP, UDP, etc.  Select TCP.  For source port, select single, then enter the external port on the router where you want the web cam to be visible.   For Destination, select single, then enter the port number of the web cam.  Click OK and return to the Edit Service page. Click OK again, you should be back to the Add Port Forwarding Rule page.  Now you can select the "Web Cam" entry you created from the Protocols pull-down.
