USB Webcam Converted To Ip

I wanted to be able to take my usb Logitech webcam and convert it to an IP webcam so I could view via Ip Camviewer : https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/ip-cam-viewer-pro/id402656416?mt=8

Yawcam  : http://www.yawcam.com/download.php : Worked a treat.

Install Yawcam,  Enable Stream on the control panel window


Click on settings, then edit settings

Under the Connection category you should see that it has detected your wan IP (External Ip address)




Click on Whats my URL ?


This will give you the http address needed for local and external view of your webcam.


Don't Forget to port forward the necessary port, in this example I used the default stream port 8081.
Must forward  Tcp/Udp.
