Hi everyone,

I have 2 IP cameras on ports 80 and 88 respectively. Been working fine until the one on port 88 stopped for some reason. When I try a port checker (while troubleshooting on the webased recording service I subscribe to) it tells me that port (88) is closed.

Yet, according to my settings in my WAN - Virtual Server / Port Forwarding tab settings on my AC87U with Merlins FW, everything is fine, IP address has not changed and it's alongside my other working camera (on the default port 80).

I did a restore of my config backup (taken when all my settings were working correctly etc) and I checked using the port checker and port 88 was open. I then went online to check the camera feed and still not working. Checked the port checker again moments later and it showed that port 88 had closed.

Not sure what's going on - if anyone could shed anly light on this I would be grateful.

Cheers
