Access Yewcam from outside network

Hello, First of all, I would like to thank you for this awesome free application! It really is what I am looking for! I happen to have an issue that I've seen others encounter it too, and noticed you offer help through TeamViewer, so if that is needed, that would be awesome. I connect to the internet through my Router which is bridged to my Modem, and I use a Dynamic PPPoE type connection, which is set in my router. I have both enabled UPNP in my router, and also set the Port Forwarding accordingly. When I check for "Am I online?", the status returns as OK, however, if I want to connect to that address, it won't work. It does work from within the network though. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!.
