    hi..

    ive downloaded software that i like to use to stream live video.. i have a router that splits to three different computers in my house.. on every computer, the feed worked. however, nobody i know can seem to view the feed.. im thinking it has something to do with possibly the security on my network? how would i go about granting other people access to view my feed?

    thanks a lot

    so are you saying that the machines on your lan can see the streaming content but those attempting to view via internet cannot? This was not specified but you did say the pc's on your lan worked.

    How is your LAN laid out? If you have a router, you have to set it to forward the port you use for your video server to the video server (when accessed using your public IP).

    correct.. the machines on my LAN can view the streaming content but those who are attempting to view it via the internet cannot..

    i do have a router.. and it would be accessed using my public IP.. so your saying that i have to set it to forward the port i use for my video server? how would i go about doing that?



    thanks..

    That depends on the router. Time to read the manual, me thinks!
