470429 2006-07-14 09:33:00 I'm not attempting to run a local web server. I want all requests to my external IP (222.153.x.x) rerouted to my internal IP (10.0.0.8). Is this possible?

Yes. Set the router to bridge mode.

I want to turn my computer into an everyone can visit website.

Hopefully this will clarify things for you.

often even when yoiu have prto fowarding set up right you still get the routeradmin screen if you try it from INSIDE your network .

get it checked from outside, try a php-web-proxy

470432 2006-07-16 08:23:00 Enable port forwarding with the port 80 to your LAN IP and like robsonde said, try using a proxy to view your WAN IP. If you still get your router config page make sure you have remote configuration disabled for your router. Once you know for sure your router is correctly configured if you have your site registered with a DNS name you can add a line like

127.0.0.1 yoursite.com

to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
so you can view the site from the same URL as your visitors but it will still display your page correctly.
