Here's the story. I have a webs server created and connected to my router. The website works great when I'm connected to the router, but when I'm off the network I can't access the website.
I got the IP for my router by googling "what is my ip." I have opened ports 80 to 10080 to link to the server in the router.
One odd thing that I don't understand. When I am in network if I access XXX.XXX.XX.XX:80 I can access the web page no problem. If I access XXX.XXX.XX.XX:81 (or any other port) I get the error "Cannot access server."
Any idea what the problem could be? Could it be my ISP?
