Or this shitty router dosen`t support Linux or Slackware in particular ( highly unlikely ) Or Slackware has a bug somewhere. ( Sorry if i`m getting too general on this sentence )

I don't think it's got anything to do with the kind of OS you're running. Have you tried logging to the router through a wired connection?

1) The correct subnet & IP address needed to access the router. So, if the router's address is xxx.yyy.2.xxx then your computer needs to have an IP address of xxx.yyy.2.xxx (notice the 2) .. Second, I have a Belkin router here, which seems to like being logged into at xxx.yyy.aaa.254 rather than xxx.yyy.aaa.1, so check to manual for this info.

2) The hard-reset button generally needs to be held in, WHILE power cycling the router, so:

Press and hold the button, while the router is ON.
Turn off the router (still holding the button).
Power ON the router, and after the lights calm down, release the button.

Good luck

Oh yes thanks for the hard reset tip, it worked, but what exactly do i need to forward to use apache webserver?

I was on wired, anyway i solved half of the problem, now i don`t know that do i have to do to let lampp use my ip to target my webserver.

I think i got it, i port trigered something like this :

Port Triggering

ID: 1
Trigger Port: 80
Trigger Protocol: ALL
Incoming Ports: 80
Incoming Protocol:ALL
Status: Enabled

And it seems to work

I don't know your router control panel. On my router it's called a 'Port Range Forward' tab. Assuming that you use the standard http port ie. 80 and the LAN IP address of your computer where the website is stored is 192.168.1.5 (just an example) you would forward anything incoming on port 80 to 192.168.1.5. In other words, if there's anything coming from the outside world to you router's port 80, the router will forward it to the specified computer on your LAN. Hope it makes sense.

edit: oh, you already got it
