How Steve PORT FORWARDs a Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Modem Router
In the never ending struggle to PORT FORWARD my Camstreams out-put
across my Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Wireless DSL Modem / Router I would like to share with you the modest success of my most recient effort. Setting up the Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Wireless DSL Modem / Router 1. Reset the router to factory settings under tools. 2. Go to security and: a: Make sure the firewall is OFF. b: Set DMZ for all network computers to ON. c: Go to applications and choose your computer from the drop-down network menu. d: Set applications button menu to user and press NEW rule. e: Give rule a name. f: Set protocol drop-down menu to TCP;UDP. g: Select a range of PORTS to open. For example if you wish to use port 5700 I suggest you START 5000 , END 5999 , MAP 5000. Then APPLY. h: Press the BACK button. i: Click on your new rule in the list box and ADD it to your computer. j: Then press APPLY. To beef up my Camstreams encoder I switched to the regular Windows Media Encoder Version 9 available free to Windows users from MicroSoft downloads. I used the following suggested settings from Camstreams with a few alterations (listed). Windows Media Encoder Version 9 Run the encoder, select 'Broadcast a live event', Click OK Select the devices you want to use in the next screen, click Next --- I don't use audio devices. Select 'Pull from the encoder', click Next Enter port number 5700, click Next --- I also run two others on different ports. Keep the first two settings as 'Multiple bit rates video' Scroll down in the 'Bit rate' box to the one marked '148kbps, 15, 320x240', uncheck any others and check this one, press Next 'Archive a copy...' leave unchecked, click Next Select 'No,...', click Next Give your stream some info if you want - if not just leave blank, click Next Click Finish Give the encoder a few seconds to sort itself out, then click 'Properties' Click the 'Compression' Tab, Click 'Edit...' Under 'Target Bit Rates', select your 148Kbps stream and click 'Edit' In 'Audio Format', pull down "10kbps, 16Khz, Mono CBR" --- I don't use an audio device. Change 'Frame rate' to 20fps Change 'Video Bit rate' to 48K (including the 'K'), click OK --- I use 20K. Go to the File menu, and select 'Save As' - call the file a name (e.g. broadcast.wme) and save it to your Desktop. In the future you can launch the encoder with this settings file by double-clicking it, so you do not have to set it up every single time. Click 'Start Encoding' to start your broadcast. Good luck with your Camstreams broadcast from behind a Verizon Actiontec GT704WG Wireless DSL Modem / Router. Author: Mr. Steven G. Liggett A.K.A. Webcam Steve of -- http://PieceOf****Computer.com/ |
