Few routers honor port forwarding rules when the source is within the LAN. Configure your browser to use a proxy on the Internet for your network then try again.

Have you configured the router to forward traffic to the server? I don't know how to do it on youre router, but it shouldn't be particularly difficult. Some routers allow the creation of a "DMZ" or have built in processed for publishing to the internet.

You need to port forward the ports you want accessible to the outside world (probably port 80).
