Anyone figure out how to take care of this problem and know how to explain in simple terms?
I'm not familiar with Foscam particularly, but what have you tried and it didn't work?

I assume that you need to connect to the Public IP address. Correct? Have you done a port forwarding to the Camera/NVR?

Port forwarding probably needs to be set up. You can call foscam and they will walk you through it.

I'm thinking of putting up a single camera to monitor the front of my house, as I get many deliveries when I'm out and don't bring them in till hours later. Would the ring doorbell be enough for me, or what would ppl here recommend?

All I did was set it up with wifi with my phone... I'm not such a tech guy so I don't really understand what you wrote... I would appreciate if you can explain if it's not too hard...

I'm looking to install cameras in my home and I would like some advice.

Should I install standard wired cameras with a DVR or should I go with a wifi camera?

If I should go with a wifi camera, which one is a better option, the Nest, Arlo, or something else?

TIA!
