Web Server

I am running a web server, I just got the Wireless
Network Laptop Kit (802.11g) and I have my server
hardwired in to my switch witch then goes to my router,
the MN-820. I can't seem to be able to access my web
site now. I tried using the port forwarding settings,
but that didn't seem to help, I tried the DMZ, and that
didn't work. I check all my server settings, and they
are setup right. I can access my site using its local IP
<192.168.1.10> but I can't access it using my gateway IP
<12.205.186.151> and I can't use the URL <http://www.west-
fest.no-ip.com>. I don't know what is going on with
this. I had a Linksys router befour and my site worked
well with that. Please help me! Thanks!

The MN700 router (from the 820 package) does not support
loopback -- i.e. no access to LAN servers using the WAN
IP. MS did the same thing with the previous version, the
MN500, but eventually upgraded to support loopback.
That's one of the reasons I never upgraded.

Call MS support and log a request for loopback.

On a second note, I used your IP to check your server,
and it is responding (well asking for a login, and then
sending an error message since I don't have a password).

You can also try to use http://www.samspade.org or
similar service to verify that the server is working.
