Setting up a home web-server problems!
hi all,
I've just finished setting up my web-server today and when i go to the public ip address of our modem http://202.87.167.38 the request times out. ive done port forwarding, dmz ip address and it still times out would anyone be able to debug the ip address http://202.87.167.38 and find out the problem or something????? ive got 256kbps download and 64kbps upload would i need faster upload speeds?
Please read this (and not just that section, though it's relevant right now).
No, you don't need faster uploads.
There is nothing listening on port 80 on that IP that we can see. Does your ISP block inbound HTTP? Are you sure you forwarded the right port to the right LAN IP (192.168.x.y)? Try port 81 eveywhere.
An you access it via the local netwok address? Perhaps you ISP blocks 80 incomong to stop people from serving from their home connections. If that's the case try running apache on a different port.

Well from those screenshots ...
Is your server 192.168.1.105?
Does your server have iptables setup on it?
From another machine on your LAN can you see the webserver by visiting the internal ip address (192.168.1.105)?
Take a look at the manual. http://www.billion.com/_Internet/use...M_12162005.pdf
The router has a build in firewall.
Also look at page 83
You need to enable NAT in the WAN-ISP section in order to use the virtual server function.

It needs to go to your modem, and then the modem needs to forward the request to your server.
Did you enabled NAT on the modem?
Try to disable the firewall.
