Did you already manually configure port forwarding on your router? If so, I 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 12000 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.
It says that the port is blocked even though I have tried to setup port forwarding manually. I'm running a engenius ESR-9753 router btw.
