Problem with wamp

[vipewla]

Hey guys , i have been a great problem as of now. I have installed everything correctly , changed the apache config file to listen to Port 8080 instead of Port 80.
Since on port 80 , my routers configuration page in running.
I'm using Beetel 220 Bx , i have done with the setup at NAT , virtual servers added the port 8080.
Also added port 8080 in the exceptions of my firewall.
Now when some outside try to connect to my website with [myip:8080...]
They are able to connect , but when i do the same [myip:8080...] , i'm not able to connect.
Another , i have done adding this 127.0.0.1 myip in the host file in windows xp.
Still not possible ?
My port 8080 is open...
Though i'm able to access my website with [127.0.0.1:8080...] or [localhost:8080...] through my pc.
You can test it [122.***.68.99:8080...]

In this case, it does not work because you cannot use your external (WAN) IP address to access your server (on your LAN) from inside your LAN. It's impossible, because this would require your router to make both an out-going and in-coming connection at the same time for the same TCP/IP transaction. That cannot work.

You have two choices: Configure an external proxy (a proxy on the Web) to "reflect" your requests back to your IP address, or set up an "alias" domain in your hosts file and point that to the LAN address of your server.
