Help Dlink IP Web Cam now not working - HotSpot can't find Mac address. Ad Hoc (unrooted)

Hi

Great forum by the way.

I'm after a little help please. I've got a DLink 932L IP Web Cam connected via the hotspot of my Note 2 - I've had this connected with no problem for 3 months. I use the IP Viewer Cam Pro App and this has worked great.

Unfortunately, I understand there has been an update for the Note 2 recently and over the last 3 days or so I can't connect the IP Cam.

I've tested the Cam via my home network connected and its viewable on my PC - so the cam is working.

(What I use it for is security for my vehicle - its a taxi. I connect via the hotspot and view the cam on my phone while driving for security).

I've been trying to sort this issue out for 2 full days and I'm at a loss.

The MAC address is correct.

The settings on the app are:
Dlink DCS-932
192.168.43.50 (the port is 80)
Password and user is correct too.

Am I missing something? Has the update changed some AD Hoc settings?

Please help.

Cheers
Chris
