I have spectrum internet and residential customers cannot get static ip's. Their only option available is to use ip reservation and port forwarding. Can this skill work in that environment? If so, could you provide assistance in setting it up or suggest a few links that might provide some assistance?

@johncblacker this project is currently configured to use local camera URI's for the Alexa Skill. So there is no need to use your WAN's IP address at all. Or perhaps I am misunderstanding your question, if so please let me know.
