Unable to connect to certain IP camera apps while using tailscale

1

I’ve recently setup tailscale on my pfsense router since I’m on Starlink. I’m trying to be able to view my cameras while I’m not at home.

I believe I have everything configured correctly, but I could be wrong. I have an Amcrest NVR as well as a Reolink camera that connect via an app on port 37777 and port 9000. I can browse to the NVR and camera while on 4/5G just fine (80/443) but when I try connecting to the app on port 37777, it times out. I ended up changing the HTTPS port to 37777 to make sure nothing is being blocked and sure enough, I can access it via chrome by https://ipaddress:37777

Am I doing something wrong?

Figured it out, I wasn’t using the exit note on the IOS app… set that and boom, I can now view my IP camera apps!

What I don’t understand is while I was able to view the 80/443 websites without the using the exit node though?
