STEP 7 - PORT FORWARDING AND ONLINE VIEWING
TESTING PORT FORWARDING
If you would like to see if your port forwarding worked, follow these steps :
1. Open a web browser and type in www.whatsmyip.org.
2. Your External IP address will be listed on the top center of the screen, make sure to
write it down. This is the address that you can use when not at home to connect up to
your baby camera.
3. Open another web browser.
4. Type in www.canyouseeme.org. This also allows you to see your external IP address.
5. Your external IP address will be listed and underneath it you will see a box saying
“what port?”
6. In the box put the port number you set the software to. The default port is 80.
7. Click the check button and scroll down.
8. You will see a message that tells you that it can successfully see your port. This means
you have successfully port forwarded.
9. If you receive an error message please view the troubleshooting guide. If you’re still
having trouble you can always contact LEVANA’s 24/7 support team.
