not sure how to title this

<SKATER] · 12-14-2006, 11:21 AM

this is kinda network issue but dealing w/ a webserver.

I am hosting a few websites from my house. I have recently needed to replace my router. Ever since then I have not been able to get to the sites hosted on my web server from within my network. If I check the sites from work or anywhere outside my network the sites work without a problem. the status bar shows "waiting for www......." and then times out. I have the settings as they should be w/ port 80 open and routed to my web server. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you access the internal website by using just the IP?

You said you have two websites hosted, is one of them forwarded to port 8080?

<SKATER] · 12-14-2006, 12:13 PM

nothing is forwarded to port 8080. haven't tried the ip yet but that is easy to do. I tried it from my palm TX and it timed out on sending the request. hope that helps. I assume that you are referring to the ip of the machine. if so, i get page can not be found. If I hit the wan IP of the router I get "page cannot be displayed. same as if I try to hit the domain address.

Try typing the name without the www. if that doesnt work, reply with the type of router and I will see if I can help.

Have you tried just typing the IP of the server or using it's name?

ie...

http://192.168.0.101
\\server

<SKATER] · 12-15-2006, 06:17 PM

I tried all 3. the domain w/ out the www. and \\web-server and the ip of the server. none work except I did get the file / folder layout.

the router is a brand new netgear wgr614 v6. I have remote admin on it. I have a forum on the main site that is hosted and one of the users told me that the uploads weren't working. I don't know if that is something w/ the router or not. I haven't tried that problem yet.

hate to bump a thread but.....................

Is the router configured to forward incoming requests to that machine on the LAN? I'm afraid I don't know that particular router so I can't give specific instructions for configuration. I suggest also posting in the Networking forum.

<SKATER] · 12-22-2006, 08:47 PM

the router is setup to forward incoming requests, hence I can access the sites from other networks. I posted in the network forum but haven't gotten any responses.

<SKATER] · 12-22-2006, 09:03 PM

is there a way to flush the router's DNS and arp tables?

<SKATER] · 12-23-2006, 07:28 PM

problem solved. downloaded the previous firmware and uploaded that to the router. works perfectly.
