They should be getting sent to whichever server IP address was 
specified in the "rtsp://" URL, or - if a server domain name was 
specified instead - whatever IP address that domain name resolved to 
when it was looked up (via DNS).

RTSP/RTP cannot reliably be expected to work across NATs.  (If you're 
behind a NAT, then you're not really on the Internet.)  Instead, you 
can ask for RTP-over-TCP streaming, which should work.
