I have been working on this for several days now and have run out of options - hope you csan help
My ISP is Verizon using FIOS. I have an actiontec M424-WR rev D router.
Verizon blocks the following ports (maybe more): 80, 8080, 23, 443, 8443.
My web server is Abyss X1, configured to use port 2555 which Verizon does not block.
I have set a static IP address (outside the DHCP range) for the system where the web server resides and have port forwarded port 80 to port 2555 for that IP address. the router firewall security level is set to "medium".
If I point to port 2555 at that IP address from behind the router everything is fine - the web page I created displays OK.
If I take my laptop outside the router and try to connect to the web server through the same IP and port I get a time out error while trying to connect. If I try to connect with default port (80) I get a no connect error.
What am I doing wrong? :4-dontkno
