I tested it on my iphone 3gs on wifi and 3g network and I got this

The stream is Baseline profile Level 4.1. The specs for the iPhone 3gs state Baseline Level 3 and below.
The above stream, will play on later iPhone / iOS based devices (4, 4S iPad etc..)
See if you can reduce the stream's encoding quality settings for the Profile level down to 3.0 or below.
That should help.

You might check Axis for firmware update to see if it adds that capability.

If not, a work-around is to turn off codec reporting so the older phone will just play it. To do that, set the two properties in this post to "false"

Can you check/modify the resolution of the video stream provided by your IP camera.
I see from the iPhone 3GS specs that the max. resolution is 480x320 (http://www.apple.com/iphone/iphone-3gs/specs.html)
In case your camera has a larger video output resolution, you need either to modify the video resolution output to a lower setting, or to use the transcoder addon to re-size it.

There is a tutorial on How to set up and run Wowza Transcoder AddOn for live streaming
The basics on configuring and running the Transcoder AddOn are described in that tutorial.
Using this addon implies an extra cost as it is licensed separately, so depending on the license you are using, check with Sales (sales@wowza.com) on ways to receive and enable the Transcoder license.
