Hiya, I have eircom fibre router (1000 model I think) and configured duckdns domain to map to a machine on my home networking (for an IP security camera) and used port forwarding.

this all works until I reboot the machine with the cameras attached as the ip address changes - am I able on this kind of lan to just manually fix the IP of the machine ?

Shouldn't you map to the IP of the camera rather than a computer ? Give the camera a fixed IP and port to that.

To access the camera from your home computer just provide the IP address you assigned it. Pick an IP for the camera up above the DHCP range of the router or preferably configure a narrower DHCP range on the router and assign an IP to the camera outside of this range.
