I purchased your ESP-32 Cam Projects course, and 2 of the AI-Thinker ESP-32 Camera Wifi sets hoping to set up an internet web-cam type of system that I could view from other locations. I thought that was what the information in the course was going to cover. After purchasing the course, and reading the projects, I realize that this is not the case. It only covers monitoring from my local network. Not criticizing the course, as it is a good course with good information, just short of the information I was seeking. Do you have a course that would be covering what I am looking for? I am well versed in microcontrollers, programming etc. I have been using Arduinos for years, even setting up a remote weather station using 2 arduinos and an ESP-32 all working together to provide weather information I can access from anywhere.

Hi Randall.
I’m sorry that the course was not what you’re looking for.
At the moment, the course doesn’t cover monitoring outside the local network.
To access your web servers from outside your network,
We recommend port forwarding your router: https://portforward.com/
Or using ngrok: https://ngrok.com/
We intend to add that kind of information to the eBook on the next update, but at the moment we don’t cover that content.
Regards,
Sara
