      I am behind a router and viewing remotely does not work. I have allowed port forwarding on 4112 and have changed under options on Webcam Monitor 4.1 to the same port. If I am using the router's internet at type: 192.168.1.47:4112 it works. But at home when I type the public ip mms://71.23..*:4112 it does not work. I have a static IP as well. I have disabled all firewalls.

        If you can view the stream from the local network (the 192.168 address), then the video is being sent. Please read our article, Configuring Your Camera and PC for Internet Streaming, which explains how to configure your router to stream WebCam Monitor video outside your LAN.

          is it possible for a webcam with a private ip address to be viewed from outside the local network? Is there such a feature in WebCam Monitor? Thanks.

            Yes, you can view the WebCam from outside your network. You will have to establish Port Forwarding on your router, as described in the article Configure your PC and Camera for Internet Streaming.

            You may also find the article View Your Camera Remotely helpful.
