I have no idea what you have to work with and what you are doing.
Also, too many things are changing at one time to follow the progress.
However, my guess(tm) is that you're trying to view two almost
identical cameras from behind a WGR614v6 router. You need to make
some changes in the router. Setup the two cameras identically, except
that they have different IP addresses.
Camera #1
IP = 192.168.0.11
View Port = 2000
Control Port = 2001
Camera #2
IP = 192.168.0.12
View Port = 2000
Control Port = 2001
WGR614v6 port forwarding:
View Port #1 3000 => 192.168.0.11:2000
Control Port #1 3001 => 192.168.0.11:2001
View Port #2 3002 => 192.168.0.12:2000
Control Port #2 3003 => 192.168.0.12:2001
I picked the IP addresses and port numbers at random. I also don't
recall (and can't find) the exact port number layout used by the
camera. I vaguely recall that it has separate view and control port
numbers as above. Change the numbers to accommodate your setup.
