Please log in for more thread options I run Apache on my home PC which is behind a Netgear router. It gets dynamic IP address from Comcast. I would like to visit the web server from outside. I went to dyndns.org and registered an account "mydomin.dyndns.org". I also did port-forwarding (port 80 for http) on my router. But I can not "ping" or visit my web server from outside with browser. I do not think my isp is blocking port 80 because if I do not use the router, I can visit the web server from outside. What did I do wrong? Thanks | ||||

Please log in for more thread options Hello, You most likely did not properly configure the router, since that is what is failing (it works without the router). This means that it cannot be a DNS issue, and it certainly cannot be an IIS issue (is IIS even involved in this?). If you are sure you have properly configured the router, do you really use a machine outside the router? If not, perhaps your router does not support loop-back? -- Regards, Kristofer Gafvert http://www.gafvert.info/iis/ - IIS Related Info quickcur@yahoo.com wrote: | ||||

Which Netgear router? Is your firmware up to date? The router firmware or configuration seems to be the problem. I have a similar setup with my Linksys WRT54G router connected to Time Warner Roadrunner service. On one of my internal machines I run a subversion server for the sources in a couple of program projects that I host. I also have a registered a domain name with DynDNS.com. The only thing I had to worry about is that I have 3 other computers behind the NAT router and I use DHCP for them. To ensure a constant IP address for the SVN server, I assigned a fixed IP address outside the dynamic range. This way the server always has the same internal address for router forwarding of the SVN packets. Larry | ||||

If You can reach the web page from outside with out the router you have 'nt got the forwarding right in the router. FYI your router may be blocking the returned info from your website to the outide world. | ||||
