Re: Cant Connect to Any Service via WAN but Can Connect Via LAN
Just a tip if anyone else would like to have access to their WAN IP when you're on the same network. Get a domain (freenom is a free domain name provider) and use cloudflare with it. Cloudflare will proxy the connection through other servers which will let you access the domain from your own network.15KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Cant Connect to Any Service via WAN but Can Connect Via LAN
I gave up after the call with Telus but I just set everything up again (I just added a DHCP reservation for my server and opened ports 800 and 443) and my friend was able to reach my Apache server through the domain. I also used a VPN and I also reached my Apache server. Haven't tried cellular yet, but I hope it also works. Thanks a lot for your help. I don't know why it started working all of a sudden but I'm hoping I wasn't just being dumb sinxe I certainly remember port forwarding port 80 and adding a DHCP reservation when I made this thread. Thanks to Nighthawk and rc for helping me for almost a month.15KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Cant Connect to Any Service via WAN but Can Connect Via LAN
I just finished the call with Telus. They said they changed my WAN IP after resetting my router. I told them it is still the same and they told me to reset it again and restart my computer. I did that both and my IP is still the same and port forwarding still doesn't work.15KViews0likes6CommentsCant Connect to Any Service via WAN but Can Connect Via LAN
I set up an Apache server and it is working fine if I connect from LAN, but if I try connecting from my domain name (I'm using Freenom for the domain name) or WAN IP it just times out. Same thing with Minecraft servers, Terraria servers, FTP and SSH.Solved15KViews0likes16Comments
