I have a new camera and I cannot get it to connect from outside of my local network. Previously I connected (2) other brands (Trendnet, Foscam) using the following method.
I set the HTTP port to my selected number in the camera. Then in the router, I set the port and local port to that same number and protocol to both. Dahua seems to need (2) ports one for tcp and one for udp, so I used (2) port numbers.
With the (2) prior cameras, I could enter 192.168.1.xxx: port or static external IP 104.xxx.xxx.xxx: port in a browser and they would bring up the login. However Dahua will not connect.
The camera did not come with a manual and there is none on line, just a simple installation sheet for hardware.
Any ideas what I need to get it to connect remotely?

I just found that Dahua has a WiKi page that may answer some of the above

WiKi page did not help. Sent a request to Dahua support and they have not responded.
Any ideas???
