that's normal for it to go to your router, as your ecetially looking up your own IP address. to prove this try typing you external IP address into your browser.
ask a friend to look at your website.

Portforwarding won't work
Alright, I'm in the process of making an Apache server I'm running available on the net.
Router: 192.168.1.1
Computer: 192.168.1.3
I registered a free hostname at dyndns.com and I'm running the Apache server successfully, temporarily on port 8080 (accessible at 127.0.0.1:8080, 192.168.1.3:8080).
When I enter that hostname in a browser it takes me to the router's configuration page (tried accessing from remote computers too) and when I add :8080 at the end nothing happens (Page not found - unknown error).
Here's the router's configuration:
![]()
inb4 you're doing it wrong.

The port is properly set and working locally in the apache server (httpd.conf).
Tried with port 1723, same thing.

Don't bother man. I got sick of this.
One router won't forward, the other one I tried doesn't manage to keep the connection alive.
