Cannot access gone camera on mesh wifi

MrTomB · 20 Feb 2019 at 21:58

Okay. Short version of the story. Netgear wifi camera kept dropping from SkyQ router. Short amount of googling and purchased a tenda nova mw3 mesh system (basic, I know). Now camera doesn’t drop as connected to mesh but can not access from out of house (could access before mesh)
Tried forwarding ports from mesh to camera
Tried forwarding those same ports from router to mesh as well
Tried dmz on router pointing to mesh

I’m an amateur so bear with me

Any ideas?

Okay, hopefully the below answers you both. Thanks for replying

Skyq is acting as router
SkyQ = 192.168.0.1
Tenda nova mesh = 192.168.0.30
Netgear arlo baby camera = 192.168.5.73

Ports 80, 443, 123 with tcp&udp

Ports on mesh are forwarding to camera
Ports on SkyQ are forwarding to mesh

SkyQ router is plugged into mesh WAN/LAN port

Tried bridge mode on tenda mesh. Still couldn’t access camera externally

Yes camera is now .0.28
So port forwarding on sky router I should point to camera up or mesh up?

Still not connecting to camera

Simply connecting through local WiFi checking it works. It does.
Then trying through 3G/4g
All performed on iphone

It worked before I went with the mesh

I might a bit lost here. I’m just trying through the app.

Tried removing port forwarding and no joy. And yes previuously it worked through sky router with no port forwarding
