Tinycam and VPN

Got four Tapo cameras working fine in Tinycam. But I installed a vpn and they stopped working. What have I done ? It’s OK when I switch the vpn off but that’s a pain.

Vpn and Tinycam are installed on Android mobiledevices on my local lan. Just found out Tinycam on a Firestick works OK. It’s just my Tablet and phone.

You’re not giving enough info.

Are you using tinyCam on a mobile device of on your LAN as server?

Where have you installed a VPN, on your mobile device or your LAN?

Do you mean you are running a VPN server on your LAN to connect to it externally or that you are tunneling out of your LAN to a remote VPN?

You’re correct I was rushing. I’ve amended my original post. Thanks

I assume you have your cameras set up using your LAN IP addresses. If that’s the case you can’t connect through a VPN because you are no longer on your LAN.

Why are you using a VPN on your own LAN?
