I have a web server listening to port 80 (http) and 443 (https).
I can load pages from it from any computer in my house, all behind the

I enabled port forwarding in the DMZ in my router for ports 80 and 443.
I can't load pages through my router using its WLAN name or WLAN IP
number. I get "Unable to connect" from Firefox. or "This site can't be
reached" and ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE from Konqueror.
Do you mean that you want to access your http server from the outside
world (inbound connection).
The below assumes that this is the case.
I have mapped port 8079 to port 80 in my router. I can't load pages
using that mapping.
You need to point your browser to port tcp 8079 with something like
'http://<IP>:port'.
Get it to work with an IP and than move on to DNS.
I also map an external port (not 22) to port 22, and I can "ssh" to my
computer using its WLAN name.
The correct way to access services on your network from the outside and
the inside is to use Split DNS.
This was all working until about three weeks ago. I didn't change the
firmware in my Linksys.
Something has changed, by the sound of what you are discribing it looks
like it was a miracle.
ARe you using UPNP?
Any ideas?
Are you restricting what IPs the httpd is listening on?
FW inbetween?
