      What does 'set the outbound' mean?

        NAT:Outbound

        • Manual Outbound NAT rule generation

        This is weird.  Doesn't the NAT (Port Forward) automatic address the outbound and inbound issue?

          No, port forwarding only deals with inbound.  Also, you shouldn't have need to manually set outbound NAT unless you were doing something non-standard.  If you set manual NAT (AON) but didn't actually change anything, that was most likely a red herring, and the router reboot is what "fixed" this.

            I did add a rule in the outbound of creating a static port 9082.

            This is interesting.  I would changed that back and find out.

                That's the http port that the IP camera uses.

                  But that is for inbound (port forwarding.)  That has nothing to do with the port numbers in the outbound NAT settings.  What specifically did you set for the outbound NAT entry?

                      Outbound NAT should only be for new connections initiated from inside.  Have you tried deleting them and rebooting pfsense?

                        Just disabled the whole Outbound NAT.

                        You are right.  A simple Firewall State Reset was all it is needed.

                        thanks.
