Guest Ablegreen Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Hi, I have Verizon FiOS (home account). I read the following post: http://www.groovypost.com/blogs/mrgroov ... d-port-80/ and I am unable to get my web server to be seen. 1) I made my computer IP address to be static (changed it from 192.168.1.3 to 192.168.1.11) 2) I fired up my web server on port 81, entered localhost:81 in my broswer and it's working 2) I went to my router's page, went to the port forwarding page, and added a new entry: 3) I entered 192.168.1.11:81 in my browser, and it doesn't work 4) My external IP address is 173.60.88.41, so I tried entering 173.60.88.42:81 in my browser, and it still doesn't work Am I doing something wrong here or is Verizon in my area really strict? From the post on the blog, it appears people got other ports working (eg. 81), but I can't even get that port to work. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Steve Krause Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 When you entered in 192.168.1.11:81 into your browser did you put HTTP:// in the front of it? Be sure to do that. Also, when you tried that were you on the inside of your network? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
