My ISP gives ip's with a dhcp server.
This means that I can not set the preferences of my airport extreme router to manually.

I was asking if someone could tell me if it's right that it needs to be set manually, or no.

The explanations in the previous port prove me that it's a router issue, and that setting port mapping does not help.

So far I have on my computer the fixed ip 10.0.1.201
on my airport I get my tcp/ip info from the ISP via DHCP
port forwarding is set to forward from port 1080 to port 80 on my server-computer (my isp doesn't allow servers and blocks all ports under 1024)

The site can be accessed from everywhere except ppl outside my network.

Apache listens on port 80 AND 1080 (just to make sure)

So am I still forgetting something, or am I right that NAT needs to be disabled to run a server and to disable NAT I have to set the ip of my airport manually, which I can't do since it will change in a couple of days...

The last thread was locked for the same reason this one will be: This is a networking question and belongs in the Networking forum.
That said, you should not need to disable NAT. Try reposting this in Networking with more details on what router, settings and other details you have there.

Indeed. It's clearly posted what does and does not belong here. If you choose to ignore this, your thread may get closed.
