Getting webcam to work on FIOS Internet

Hi,
I have the below Linksys webcam and I can not access it out side of my home network. I have sent numerous emails to Fios internet support and they keep sending me URL links that do not help. Looking at the posts it looks like port 80 is blocked unless you are a business customer, so what port can I use to access my webcam from the internet? Any help that anyone can give would be great since I have had this web camera since Xmas and have not been able to use it.

Thanks,
Greg

Yes it looks like I can use an alternet port on this camers such as 5000. What about using a domain name like gsavlon.Linksys-Cam.com, do I just put the 5000 at the end of this? (gsavlon.Linksys-Cam.com:5000) CORRECT. Do I still have to setup port forwarding on my actiontec router and specify this port number? Yes, you will have to specify the port you want the router to portforward and you will not be able to use any of the preconfigured protocols, just click "Add" to the right and specify port number 5000 TCP. Name the service then click apply, then do the rest as normal.

I cannot get firefox to work with my internet browser firefox. unfortunatelt\y i have to use explorer if i want to see my email

i can't use firefox for getting my email. comcast is my internet provider and they can't fix the problem. i have to use explorer which works fine. i have a hp pavilion entertainment pc laptop that uses the XP operating system. i would prefer to use firefox.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== it's been over a year

What kind of problem do you have when you try to access your email? What do you see or not see that is different from what you expect?
You said that Comcast can't fix the problem. Have you contacted their support? What did they say was the problem?

Can't get webcam to work.

I bought the Sony Eyetoy for the Playstation 2 several years ago, and have been wondering for the longest time if I could get it to work as a camera on my iBook G4.
Just recently, I downloaded Macam, an app that somehow recognizes the Eyetoy. I can get it to now work on Skype, which none of my friends have or use, but iChat does not recognize it. Also, my friends use mebeam.com, and that also does not recognize the camera. Even after I set up the application of Macam as the directions read.
Any answers or suggestions would be appreciated, thank you

There are several cameras which work with iChat. Some work without any additional software, some work after installing additional drivers. Some cameras don't work at all.
I use the Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision SE and it requires no additional software to be installed.

How to get Profile Manager working over the internet?

I've set up profile manager at home and it work great on my local network. Now I wanted to make it work over the internet but I can't figure out how to do so. I've already opened the required ports. When I try accessing the User Portal trought my <external ip>/mydevices it asks me whether I trust a certificate or not, but when I choose "ok" it keeps requesting the URL forever until it times out. Am I required to have a registered domain name to access my server or I can just use my external IP ? Is there anything else I should do in order to have it working?

First off, you say you've opened 'the required ports', but which ones are they, in your opinion?
That may sound like a dumb question, but it isn't meant to be. You'll need port 443 to support HTTPS connections, and 1640 for the Certificate Enrollment server.
Additionally, you WILL need a valid domain for this - at least if you don't want authentication errors. SSL certificates rely on the hostname (amongst other things) to provide validation and if you access the site via IP address that validation is doomed to failure. That shoudkn't lead to the problem you're experiencing, which is no response at all, but it's still an issue to resolve.

Trouble with getting website to work on the Internet

I have been setting up Apple Server software and FileMaker Server on my G4 as n online database and I am trying to get it to serve the Apple test Homepage and a FileMaker site through to the Internet.
I have been through the quick setups and have got the whole thing working using my IP addresses on my Intranet. So I now have a web site fully accessible on 10.0.0.7 and the FileMaker database too - but only on my Intranet. However, when I log on to my external IP address I just get the admin access to my router!
I am sure it is something to do with ports. Everything seems to be on port 80 at the moment, but when I try different ports nothing works at all. Any idea what I am missing? It may even be somthing to do with the way the router is set up.
any comments or general abuse would be much appreciated

It sounds like you're on a residential-type router, which probably means you're also on a residential ISP network.
1) Make sure your ISP doesn't block port 80. It's not all that uncommon. If they're blocking port 80, these tests won't work anyway.
2) All you need to worry about in your router setting is either NAT or Virtual Servers -- they both effectively do the same thing for this purpose. The Virtual Servers setting just helps you out more by typically giving you a list of services to choose from so you don't have to type out all the NAT details. You want a Virtual Server or NAT for port 80 to be directed to 10.0.0.7. That should be it. If you are also directing 10.0.0.7 back to 86.139.149.74 in the router, well, I'm not exactly sure what would happen with that. I mean, it sort of creates a loop (traffic from the outside world should go through your router to your server, but you're also telling your router that traffic to your server should go to the external interface on your router).
Is your IP address static or dynamic? If it's dynamic, just check on it to make sure it's still the same -- it's possible that your ISP could be refreshing it often enough to make things difficult.
If your FileMaker web server is running on port 80, then you're not running Apache, which is fine if that's what you want. FileMaker has another level of security settings to it though, so make sure that external clients are allowed to view your databases. I doubt this is the case though, but another thing to keep in mind.

How do I get Firefox to work I have Internet Explorer 9

Internet Explorer is unable to bring up Firefox support. When I load, from an icon on my desktop, Firefox & Google pops up, but there is no Google e-mail > Really, there isn't anything else on the screen that I'm used to seeing, for example: my favorites, the Google bar is missing, recent contacts. I don't know how to use your Firefox > I am a writer and depend I on the computer to get the job done. > I would like to get rid of Internet Explorer all together - it constantly quits and then restarts - over and over.
I need all of the gadgets that are on Google to operate.

I suspect security software or a firewall is your problem.

After resetting my Airport Extreme, I can't get it to work! Please help!

Hey everyone!
I have an airport extreme base station (wireless n-gigabit ethernet) and awhile ago it stopped working on me. I simply reset my aebs and whenever I open airport utility and try and configure my aebs, it tells me I have an error and can't connect to the aebs. I have comcast internet service and my aebs is connected to my router. It's been working successfully for about a couple months and now it's stopped working. : (
I've tried this both in manual setup and the regular setup. I've gone through the trouble of doing a hard reset (pressing the reset button until it flashes amber), I've unplugged the power while holding the reset button, connecting my laptop with the aebs via ethernet, making sure everything is updated (and it is), resetting the router, and even reinstalled my airport utility disk.
Please help! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I also tried setting up my aebs on my neighbor's internet and it worked like a charm! Setting up aebs was as easy as when it first worked. Now if only I can get it to work on my internet...

USB webcam recognized but cannot get it to work

Hi,
May be this was posted earlier, i tried looking but could not find anything. Question is that i have a webcam which used to get detected as a PC CAMERA in a PC. When i plugged it into the MacBook, i thought it did not see it at all. Fiddled around a little and found that it showed up in the system profiler under USB devices as "Guess What" PC CAMERA. Now how to get to use it. Its a night vision cam which has a 1.3 MP resolution. All applications open the built in isight, how do i get them to work with the new cam which is recognized as PC CAMERA.

Windows 7 operating system....constantly pops up with a window that says I am not on the internet and can't register my product....obviously I am on the internet at this moment because I am posting on an online forum.

VOIP has stopped working -- FIOS Internet -- Verizon blocking ports?

Background:
I have two VOIP device, one is from VOIP.com (HT-286) and the other is my Blackberry 8220 wifi-enabled phone.
Until December, I had Cox Internet for the last two years -- ZERO problems with the above devices. I made and received phone calls just fine.
FIOS internet installed early december. Both devices worked fine on install. I made and recevieved VOIP phone calls with both the VOIP.com device (Home phone) and my wifi Blackberry.
I've taken my VOIP box over to the neighbor's to test it -- works fine. I plug into their router and have no problems. My wifi Blackberry works just fine when I go to to the bookstore or coffee shop (Free wifi).
Internet (as defined by using PC web browser) and TV work fine. We have VOIP service with VOIP.com.
Problem:
About two weeks ago, I noticed that I would occasionally get phone calls on the blackberry and there would be no one there. I didn't think anything of it until my wife finally asked me why she couldn't make outgoing calls on the house phone.
I tested it, and this is what I found:
BOTH PHONES:
Phone rings. "Dead" call. However, the caller can hear ME but I cannot hear them
I make outgoing call on VOIP/house phone: I get dial tone, and dial as normal, but once I've dialed, SILENCE. No ring, nothing. The called phone will ring but I will not hear it, nor hear the other party answering. I can call my wife's cel phone (Tmobile) or work phone and it rings. She can hear me, but I cannot hear her.
I make outgoing calls on wifi Blackberry: Enter number and press send as normal, but SILENCE. Same symptoms as above.
As I said, I've taken both devices to other networks and they work fine. NOTHING was changed on the router in the time frame EXCEPT the name of the SSID, which I changed the very first day --both devices were working for several weeks after.
I have powered off and restarted the router a dozen times and I just did a "hard" reset to return it to the factory settings :: my voip service still is not working properly.
WHAT I HAVE DONE:
I called Verizon FIOS Internet support. They say since I can watch TV and access the web, that nothing is wrong.
I called VOIP.com and they say they see the device coming into their network, but they cannot see if Verizon is blocking ports 5060-5070.
Blackberry support flat-out says that Verizon is blocking ports.
Can someone help?
Solved!

VZ isn't blocking those ports. they only have restrictions on port 25, and in some areas port 80. all other ports are open.
I would reach back out to voip.com and see if you can escelate it with them. you can also go to portforward.com and see if they have any walkthrough guides for your particular device. if you have a friend with fios you can try switching routers to see if that is the culprit, but there is nothing in your description that suggests to me that it would be a router issue. Also look into QOS if your VOIP people can give you any information on that, it may also be an avenue you would want to explore if you have VOIP transpiring over there.

When i click on safari to use the internet it says "safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet", but i am connected to a wifi network so how do i get safari to work?

you may be connected to the wireless network but the question is the internet working properly on the wireless network...
what i mean is that i can make a wireless network without the internet so i can save and share files and have other devices connected to the same network access them... but you have to make sure that your internet it running properly... may have to reconfigure the router is your using PPPOE or if it was working prior to your post then try to restart your modem... that usually resolves most issues.

How do I get my WEBCAM to work with YAHOO Messenger!!??

Someone please help. I have been trying for ages to get a webcam to work on Yahoo messenger but to no avail. I recently purchased a new webcam that stated it was usable with MAC OSX.
Still Yahoo does not seem to give me any option to broadcast my webcam. I was using Yahoo 2.5 before and I just downloaded and started to use Yahoo 3.0......still nothing. All outgoing webcam options are grayed out" on any of the yahoo messenger menues.
I used to go in the chatrooms on yahoo and be able to view and be viewed on webcam. Now that I switched to an ibook with OSX...I CAN DO NONE OF THAT anymore and there seems to be no workable solutions in sight ( I searched all the yahoo databanks as well as Mac discussion archives).
The cam seems to work on AIM but nothing on Yahoo messenger
Please, one of you mac geniuses come to my rescue
Additional info: I'm on an ibook G4 (2004), operating system OSX 10.3.9; processor speed - 1.2 Ghz PowerPC; 1.25 GB Ram

It was listed under the heading "USB Webcam for Apple iMac Mac Mini PowerBook MacBook" and you can see it in more detail or bid on it at:

I have a MAC running 10.6. I cant get firefox to connect to the internet unless I first open Safari and connect. Firefox works fine after that. This is a new problem on my machine How do I correct for this?

When I boot my Mac (Snowleapord 10.6) and attempt to start Firefox, the system alerts me that it cannot find the internet and requests that I try again. It is not until I start Safari, establish a connection that I can get firefox to work. This is a new problem. Until recently, things worked fine. How do I resolve this issue?

Same proble here, although the Firefox system requirements says it is OK to have PowerPC G3 G4 or G5 ( I have G5 2GHZ)
My solution; very simply use timemachine to restore the previous Frefox 3.x
worked great in 3 mns
