Told them I applied the latest firmware, they emailed me back to try the latest firmware upgrade. Duh!

I guess I just assumed it did. You'll definately want to set up a firewall on your server if there is no packet filter on the router. I've included a checklist of troubleshooting questions, please don't feel insulted by the simplicity of some of them, sometimes we all miss the little things. Is the DHCP server enabled on the router? -Yes --Did you reserve the server's IP address in the DHCP Server Settings? --Is your server set up as a DHCP client? --You might also try disabling DHCP and setting up your server with a static IP (see below) -No --Did you manually set the DNS addresses of your ISP on your server? Does your ISP for some reason block that port (and others)? They don't normally, but it is possible. ~~~)-Steven---- "I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country.

I followed all those steps, and either the ISP is blocking port 80, or this router needs some other settings? *I am free now, to choose my own destiny.*

Both Imric and I have tried port scans on your IP, these should have shown up on this log if they made it to your router. Another thing you can try is connecting your server directly to the DSL modem. See if your web server shows up then. You should probably have Black Ice running to protect yourself, just make sure you can open up port 80. Also make sure your security updates are current. ~~~)-Steven---- "I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country.

Anyone that had DSL before the merger with GTE may not be blocked, but everyone else using Verizon ADSL is probably hosed. I'd suggest switching to port 8080 and see if things magically start working.
