Internet cam - sending video to website

sportage

I have these internet cams and want to send the video to a webpage, viewable from any pc. I use the cams to monitor a dog kennel from work. THing is, to access the cams you have to do port forwarding thru the home router, and assign an IP address + port #. For example, to view the live cam from work, you'd enter the address 168.201.1:8084. That would be your home IP and the cam port :8084.
Problem is, at work they block such addressing.
So I need to know is there is a way, some program, or method to send the cam video to a home-made website and watch it using the web address, i.e. www.myhomepage.com.

No luck so far with this.
 
If the in between site saves it into a common video format that can be watched with a Browser then you can stream the file.

Otherwise circumventing the work ports system can risk the work Network and get you fired.
 
DynDNS, No-IP, and EasyDNS are three services my router is programmed to use for easy setup. You can do this even if your router doesn't support them.

With DynDNS, you create a domain name that points to your dynamic IP address, and when your IP address changes your domain name is automatically updated to use the new IP address. This way you can point your browser to sportage.dyndns.org instead of 168.201.1:8084, thus bypassing network restrictions.
