Using a Compaq iPAQ Connection Point 2W wireless router:
My laptop is at 192.168.1.115, with a server running on port 3000. I have port forwarding on the router setup to point to this port.
For the purposes of this question, lets say the external ip is 169.10.10.17.
When I tried accessing 169.10.10.17:3000, I kept getting connection refused, so I thought it was configured wrong. But, when my friend (outside of the network) accessed the ip, it worked fine. You're probably wondering why not just use 192.168.1.115:3000, but I need the external ip because I'm using dyndns for Google maps development.
Anybody know how I can access the external ip from a computer inside of the network? This is a pain, my old Linksys didn't have this problem.
