Default Need help setting up server

Hello my Linux Server friends.

[Server Specs: Fedora Core 8, 1.6 GHz dual-core, 1 GB ram, 8mb in/765kb? out internet(shared with home network)]

I'm currently trying to set up a home webserver so me and my friend can host comics that our other friends have drawn and for other randomness pages. We are going to buy a domain name once we can actually get this connection problem taken care off.

At the moment it is impossible to connect to the server through a web browser outside of my local network, but it is possible to connect and log in through SSH from outside my local network.

I've port forwarded my router on port 80 which is what the default configuration for apache2. I have also set the DMZ on the router to my server and still not capable of connecting outside my network.

Can anyone offer some suggestions??

Router is a Netgear WGT624 v3 if that helps.

Thanks for the help, getting really frustrated because I'm running out of ideas

Many ISP's block port 80. You may try other ports such as: 8080, 81, 8081 something other than the default port 80.

I have ATT DSL and thank goodness they do not filter ANY ports that I can find.
