I'll explain more or less the steps that follow to webcamXP program: 

- First of all, if you have dynamic ip you have to make a custom host name, ie a name with which to access your machine whatever the ip you have at that moment, for this you can use: dyndns, no-ip.org, etc. They basically you have to do is register on their website for free, which you choose the name you want to access your machine, and then on your pc have to install one tb you how low the web program and what it is telling the website that you have at that time ip, search on google 'no-ip tutorial' 'dyndns tutorial' or and I will come with many web catches and explained step by step. 

- If you have static IP things do not have to do it 

- now we downloaded the webcamXP program, and now to set basically do: Within monitor above the big picture that comes to us we give pci / usb and choose our web cam Then secure access on the button (on the left) fill users who want to access the webcam, in name and password and then give it to "add / update", once created all we give the button "change" that we want to enable access to the site is via Registered users (we created) Later in the web button / emission (left) in the "IP Address / Host Name" box if we have dynamic ip put the name of the host you have set dyndns or no-ip, static ip if you guys had put your current external ip on port we have a port previously opened in the router (I change the default and opened tcp port on the router to leave for this) just leave the rest (good if you want you can limit the bandwidth, ect) and now give the activate button, with this as you can access your web cam! 

================= 

To access the browser from another pc or mobile accessed http:// host-name: port host name is the name that you have placed in the "IP Address / Host Name" box section of web / webcamXP Broadcast and port which he stood at the webcamXP and you opened previously in router and with this as I had to leave access 

=================== 

To access from android can access the browser or as I explained in the previous step or the "ip cam viewer" program in this program will give to menu / manage cameras and pulsais Add button and rellenais name: any name to identify your camera type: WebcamXP URL: poneis http://nombre-host:puerto where hostname is what I explained above and the port that you opened cam: it poneis the number of your camera if you have several and it poneis one username: username that registrasteis in webcamXP program password: the password for that user and pulsais button save and ready! and you will leave your webcam PS: Check well that only you can access only your username and password and you can not in any other way but through it all is well, but I say this because anyone could access your web cam

Only one thing, as has been explained Wikianswers worth if your router is configured to pass all requests to pc internet or assigned to the ip of the pc you are talking about, but if you're the typical wifi router that has multiple ports rj-45 router assigns an IP internal network to your pc and does not work all this to make it work you have to configure the router for each port you find yourself set up in the chamber to be forwarded to the internal ip of the pc in which you have webcamXP, I tell you this is called NAT a port and internet tutos sure you can find for your router, but different for each router is the way to go.
