Accessing via WiFi Hotspot with port 80 (normal web access)
« on: January 14, 2010, 12:49:42 AM »
Does the iPhone client connects directly to a specific port (such as 12000) to the the iCamSource?  The problem is that I would like to use my iPhone via WiFi Hotspot.  Unfortunately, the WiFi Hotspots in my area only allows connection via port 80 (normal web access).  All other ports are blocked by the WiFi Hotspot.

I would like to make sure this works before making my purchase on the appstore.  Thanks!

Unfortunately, iCam doesn't work on hotspots that only allow web access.  Hotspots with web access have port 80 open for the TCP protocol, but iCam uses the UDP protocol.  Also, iCam requires a UDP port range at least 5 ports wide.
