• Router Port Forwarding
    6 replies, posted
Hey guys, I recently got a new router and the port forwarding is being all wonky for me. [IMG]http://puu.sh/7tAma.png[/IMG] sorry if large I've put the internal ip of my Raspberry Pi (connected through shared internet) into the internal/external ip box, which the help link told me to do. Ran my web server, nothing. Not even others on LAN could view it. Then I checked [url]http://canyouseeme.org/[/url] with my external ip/port 80 and that said Connection Timed out. Any help here?
New router? That config page looks like a website from the 90s :v: Well, I'd set both of them as TCP and UDP to be on the safe side. On the external IP you've entered the internal(local) IP, google external ip and there should be a webpage telling you what it is
The help page says to enter the ip for the device I'm forwarding, in my case, "192.168.137.76" and yes, it does look like a webpage from the 90s
The local IP address is indeed 192.168.X.X, however you also have a second IP address called an external one, that goes in the "external" section. In that section you have entered the local IP address, fill it in with the one displayed here [url]https://www.whatismyip.com/[/url]
Did what you said, installed and started apache2 on my raspberry pi and tested it on my laptop that it's sharing connection with, and it works. But nobody else can access it, checked canyouseeme.org and got friend to try it. No dice. Any other info you need to help me?
Just to be certain, you did give them the external IP, right?
yeah, im not illiterate with computers. haha
