The jailbroken router may be the issue, however you can try to manually configuring your router for port forward before reverting back to the stock firmware.

Here is a link to the port forwarding instructions for your particular router: http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Netgear/WNDR3700/default.htm

Following these instructions:

Forward the port range 12000-12100 (UDP protocol)  to the computer running the iCamSource.

Once this is done and you've enabled port forwarding in the iCamSource program, you should be able to access your iCamSource.

To enable port forwarding in the iCamSource program, follow the directions in this forum post: http://skjm.com/forum/index.php?topic=402

If that does not work will need to revert back to the stock firmware.

We would like to try and confirm that your port forwarding is functioning as we expect it to. If you visit this link in your computer's web browser: http://portchecker.net/udp.php?p=12001

... it will open a webpage that contains a Java Applet in it (similar to iCamWeb) that will be able to listen on port 12001 for a UDP packet to be sent from a server on the Internet to your computer.

If your port forwarding is functioning correctly then you should see a message saying that the port is "open." If it is not functioning correctly, it should say that it is blocked.

Also, please send a screenshot of your router's port forwarding configuration to support@skjm.com so we can verify the settings. Please reference this post and your username in your email.

Hi, just want to let you know that even after i was being helped by emails support, still not working but i saw the newest icam source version 2.4.4 and installed it. now everything works. So i am assuming something was not working right in my situation when i was using older version of icam source. But anyways, i am very happy that it's working for me now and thank you so much for the released of the icamsource 2.4.4. now back to using icam again. thanks. jp :-)
