You need to set up port forwarding to Port 80 in your DSL router (provided a DSL router is running).

If you are behind a router, you will have to forward port 80 to your computer's internal IP address. See this guide: http://www.portforward.com/english/applications/port_forwarding/Apache/Apacheindex.htm
Your question does not really describe your current setup in any detail at all.

You could use Dynamic DNS softwares. Essentially install a software that will contact the server and figure out your local IP, and then provide a internet address to access it. There are many service providers out there, dont really know who is the best. Here is ony I found : http://www.dyndns.com/
Your web server is likely configured to listen on localhost only. Which web server are you using, on which OS? – None – 2009-12-25T08:34:39.757
i too have the same question, i m using VS 2008, windows server, with router. What port do i need to open for it, is it same port 80 – Shantanu Gupta – 2009-12-25T09:04:31.247
I have a static ip – Shantanu Gupta – 2009-12-25T09:06:29.323
Your Cable modem or DSL router have a static IP. You need to take a look at your cable modem or DSL router, and let us know what model / manufacturer it is. Or use PortForward (www.portforward.com), to look up the model, and set port 80 to forward to your computer. – Benjamin Schollnick – 2009-12-25T15:58:32.030
