Interesting. I have a related but slightly different issue to this one. I recently began using iCamSource again after taking a break because of difficulties getting my linksys cameras to work with Airport. Turns out to be all security related problems with the wvc54gca, so I've disabled security on my AEBSs and resorted to MAC address control to control wireless access.
I've got 4 linksys wvc54gca cameras and a Foscam Fi8918W camera. I've got them all set up with static ip addresses and portforwarding on a FIOS router. I have 4 AEBSs that operate in bridge mode and all seems to work with the MAC address access control. Although I'm suspicious that this may be causing my problem.
The problem is that I launch iCamSource, go to preferences, and add 4 cameras per the support page, with port forwarding. All is well and I can access the cameras nicely on my iphone through an ATT connection to ensure that I'm good with portforwarding. Works nice for a couple hours and then similar to your problem, I can see the live video on icamsource but as I switch from camera to camera, my Ethernet/Wi-Fi option disappears and along with it my camera URL and log-in info - while the camera's still running. As I go through the camera list, they stop running when I move to the next and essentially, I have to exit icamsource, re-enter all the cameras and start all over. All cameras are static ip, w/ portforwarding.
Any ideas what this might be?
