Hello! I’m hoping someone could help me find the right camera. I want to live stream something in my backyard 24/7. It needs to have WiFi and I need to be able to set it with an a static IP address and port forward it so that I can have people just access it from their web browser, preferably have the ability to remove security on it as well. Any recommendations?

  • Outdoor
  • WiFi
  • Accessible via browser through IP address and port
  • Battery powered or solar powered
 
You're not going to find a wifi camera on solar/battery that runs 24/7.
Yes, those are available BUT none of them will stream live video via RTSP as desired by the OP. They "sleep" until accessed for a live shot or are motion-activated to record to an onboard SD card.

@Bucolic , I highly recommend you do NOT port forward. If you decide that it does NOT have to stream live video 24/7 bit still must be wire-free then consider a TP-LINK Tapo MagCam 2K+ Outdoor Wireless Security Camera w/Solar, C425 KIT
install the app on your smartphone, create a free account, set up the phone using P2P (scan a QR code) and then "share" it with others. They can view using the app on THEIR phone or tablet if their device has Internet access. The account is free as long as you don't care to store and view recordings from their cloud (P2P server).
