Zoneminder OPT_USE_AUTH setting issue/question

I am using the cgi nph-zms url to monitor my cameras outside of zone minder. I have setup a guest account to only have view access. On my LAN everything works fine when i use the url below

cgi-bin/nph-zms?mode=single&monitor=8&scale=100&user=guest&pass=guest&maxfps=5&buffer=1000

however when i hit this url from out side my network the video feed does not work (i get nothing at all no live feed, no single image) just a blank page.

If i turn off OPT_USE_AUTH the url works fine outside my network but it also opens up the ZM console to anyone who knows the url with no long in which i don't want.

Currently i have it configured

OPT_USE_AUTH - ON
AUTH_TYPE - Built In
AUTH_RELAY - Plain (i have tried hashed and none and have the same issue)...

Can anyone give me any pointers as to what to check to leave my opt_use_auth on but be able to access feed outside my network with the username and password turned on. Again while on my LAN everything works perfect.

Thanks
