i need to port forward 8000 and 8554.
however, when i set 8000, the router assigned me 49958 and also gives me 58983 for port 8554.
so off course when i use canyouseeme.org, i dont see 8000 as open, i see 49958. how to force verizon to actually give me 8000 instead of 49958?
(i know i should be using VPN but that is not an option at this time)

also i tried laview P2P app. i was able to register as a new user in the app, but when i try to login, it would say "user does not exist."

so as of now, i cannot view the laview camera remotely. please help.

Warning - Warning - Warning

DO NOT port forward!

( sorry, but while you state "a VPN is not an option at this time" - I know many people, who will state the same thing, and say they will do a VPN asap.. but never do until they are cyberjacked... and then come back and ask "my password does not work anymore..." or "my PC got ransomware.. " )

What is the make and model number of the router ? search the internet on how to place the router into bypass mode.
I recommend putting the router into bypasss mode and getting a router that supports OpenVPN (Asus router) .

Do not port forward !
