What can be done to be allowed on the web because each camera uses a different ip address from what I can see on my network

But you should be able to have that function because of the cameras having different ip addresses on your network what is stopping yall from creating it
I have a 43" Roku Smart TV and an outdoor Floodlight Camera as well as a Reolink E1 Pro indoor PTZ camera.
I have the Roku Smart Home app on my iPhone11 and the Roku Cameras Channel on my Roku TV.
I can view my camera using the TV remote to select the Roku Cameras Channel OR the iPhone11 Roku Smart Home App.
I much prefer the 43" view on TV versus the iPhone 11 screen. A TRUE No-Brainer!
To switch from my current activity/tab on the laptop, I have to select a different channel on the TV to see the camera feed. Having to go thru those steps is annoying. I would prefer to stay in the browser on my laptop, and just switch tabs to see the camera feed.
I read one post that seemed to come from the developer indicating he was working on an update to add that feature. It was not a new post, but I don't recall the date now.
Do you have any new info regarding the "View Roku Camera in a browser" issue?
TIA

I can’t see my cameras in my phone unless my phone is connected to Wi-Fi. This problem just started a couple days ago.
