Does the server have Apache ACL's, IP Tables or TCP wrapper running on it? Can you try to do a port ping or use telnet to connect to port 80 to test connectivity. ex: `telnet <Routers WAN IP Address or Public DNS Name> 80`. As you say that the server is on the inside of your network. Have you tried placing the server in the DMZ? > > > > I have mapped port 8079 to port 80 in my router.
