My westell router is blocking my server from the net

I have a Westell versalink 327w "http://www.westell.com/broadband-home-networking/versalink-gateway.html". And for some reason it keeps blocking my Apache web server host ip "192.168.1.47:8080/, I change ports many times. I have no fire walls enable, and Apache server is configured in the httpd.conf file, servername: 192...:8080, listen port :8080. On LAN works perfect, but not on the net.

But when I run the Dyndns.com's open port tool, it says "An attempted connection to 71.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080 was refused. This typically indicates that there are no services available on that port, but that it is NOT being blocked by a firewall or your ISP. Before it said connection to 71...:8080 was timeout, I enable Remote Administration in the router, now it says refuse. I thought I did something and fixed it. And still being blocked from the net. Can you guys help me out.
