Port Forwarding IP Cameras
I have tried unsuccefully to setup Port Forwards for my WiFi IP cameras. When I set the Ports up in the XFi app, I select the camera from the list of devices seen by the XFinity Router and enter the port. When the app sets up the port it assigns a different IP address than the camera address was assigned. If I go to my browers and use the IP address the camera is assigned, I can see the camera. If I use the address for the Port Forward, it times out.
How do I resolve this issue?

The way Comcast has set up port forwarding is poor. Even though I have cameras online, good IP addresses, can access them locally, Comcast port forward does not see them. You used to be able to just enter in the IP then the Port and your done. Stupid this was changed.
