We did get our Apex setup (after a few attempts) and I can access that outside the home. I'm hoping this won't be any worse than that was . . . that was a huge pain in the arse.

I have downloaded the iOS app for this, and I'm thinking the same hoops are going to be required for this: where I have network setups in the app (one for inside our home network, and one for outside). As long as we get the port right, we should be okay.

I hope.

It might be that the camera and apex will share a common port, usually 80 or 8080 so one will have to be different otherwise a conflict will occur. You can us any port number you like a few exceptions. This this link for a list of available and reserved network port numbers.
