Hi

This is a weird one.

I can view the yawcam stream from my home on my iphone over 3G. Which means the setup is fine and the router is properly forwarding all the ports it needs to.

But when i try to access the address:port from IE or chrome at my office i get a message saying

Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to....
or
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage ...

What gives ?

I would just forget about the fact that things work on a cellphone.
And then run through the whole setup again. Make sure the right
IP is being used and that things are working from just computers.

And then troubleshoot further on just computers. You may need to
do some additional thing with the router to get things to work right
on a computer. And I could be wrong too but handling the problem
from just computers is the best way to try and fix things. And then
after everything works with computers check the cellphone.

Thanks for your response.

I don't think there is a problem with my setup. Like i said, i can access the stream from outside my local network by using my iphone over 3G.
Also
The yawcam utility "Am I online" shows that both my LAN as well as WAN setup is working correctly.

I just don't know why it is not working from my office PC. Maybe the office firewall is blocking something ?

I am gonna try it from a non office PC that is outside my LAN and see how that goes.

You can email the URL to me and then I can test it from my office if you want to try that.

i think the office firewall is blocking it as you mentionned, I have the same problem at my office, yawcam is simply blocked, but that's probably because I dont use port 80 for Yawcam.
