Open port 80 on Linksys WRT160NL?

0

I have tried to open port 80 on my computer. Things I've tried:

  • Putting the http server WAMP, online (so it servers all connections, not only the ones from own machine)
  • Open port 80 in Windows's firewall.
  • 80 port forward on the router.
  • Put the router's management interface on https only in order to free http (port 80).

What you need to do is:

  • Disable Upnp on the router. Upnp reserves port 80 (but the port is seen as Closed) and port forwarding will not work. Administration/Management/Upnp/Disabled

    - and then -

  • Put http server online (so it serves all connections, including from outside it's own network)

  • Open operating system's firewall.
  • Port forward port 80 on the router.

The first one is not mentioned anywhere and it's not obvious in any way.
