It looks like you're trying to forward port 80 directly from your modem to your camera (at 192.168.0.101).
The modem settings should forward port 80 to the router's IP address.
The IP address for the router will be in the modem status page for connected devices.  (It will also be good to "reserve" the IP address for the router in the modem settings, so that it doesn't change in the future.)

I don't see any link to open (I looked through all your older posts).  Please re-post the link in your next reply.

I was able to see the images by attempting to "Quote" his post - the links were displayed in the source, but it looks like he's reposted them successfully anyway.

Also i can access the camera locally through 192.168......:port number, but writing the WAN address like 182.185...:port number doesnt let me access the camera locally even!!! Does that give u any idea where i can be wrong?

[JavaLawyer]

Many ISP's block port 80 from external access for security reasons.  Try changing the camera to another unused port number (e.g. 81). For example in my own home, I cannot access my camera using [EXTERNAL_IP]:80, but [EXTERNAL_IP]:81 does work.

I have changed the port to10001....these r the steps that I did,
Changed the port on camera to 10001, then changed the ports on modem.....can u plz tell me should I keep same port in external and internal ports?

[JavaLawyer]

You can leave the internal port on 80, otherwise you'll have to enter 192.168.1.10:10001 to access your camera internally, which can be a pain.

I recommend starting with port 81 for testing as port #10001 may be out of range.

Sorry to enter the discussion .. but I have the similar setup and wondering if any user can access one of my cameras via internet browser without any login/password if I provide him exact URL link for that? What I need is to show him just live video feed without any additional buttons and control possibilities, of course.
Thanks much. Vladimir.

I think the cameras will always require a username and password. (I'm sure someone will correct me if that's wrong.)
There's a way to send a link (to the live feed) that contains the username and password, but if you're doing that, it's best to set up a "User Account".  User Accounts do not have administrator privileges.

I could be wrong, but don't believe the DCS-930L supports command lines for embedding the un/pw in the url.
