My uncle works in the field of security. One time i went with a team from his company, we installed a set of IPtv cams for a clothes shop. They had IDM if i remember correctly, we couldn't get the camera online because IDM uses NAT (who doesn't in lebanon?), so we ended up buying a cyberghost vpn subscription and used it to go online.
