Cameras and browser

This is what happens

Strange...but that explains why a browser on that same PC cannot open a camera's embedded webGUI.

Is this how the "repeater" router is configured? As I suggested in Dec. 2023?

Range extender question

I have a Linksys WRT54G router with DDWRT firmware in it using it a a repeater off my main router,and I would like to know if it is possible to connect a range extender to it because it is a repeater itself and not a main router. I need to get better reception from one of my IP cameras is the...

No I have upgraded the router to a Netgear XR300 Gaming Router but it is still used as a repeater off the main router. Much better reception, all cameras work fine off of it. Look my original question was only because I was curious why I couldn't see the cameras in my browser. It's not that big of a deal to me, everything else works fine. I'm sorry I bothered you people with this question and the trouble. Thank you anyway for trying to help.

As I was dozing off last night, the answer came to me...should have thought of it sooner but I didn't...I was focused more on network or configuration issues because that's usually the reason. Here's the reason:

None of those cameras have an embedded webGUI...not the Tapo, not the Zosi, the v380 or the Tme Zon (?) That's why you can't view in a browser. It's unusual to have only the FOUR cams and none have an webGUI but there ya go.

You didn't waste my time any more than I wasted yours.

Thank you for all of your help, that does explain the reason why. Thanks again!
