Internet-Ethernet and Local Net

One thing you can try as a test, and I say test because it is not a good idea to keep it this way, is to see if your router has a Demiliterized Zone setting. This will point at the IP address of the device on your lan and leave it wide open to the net. This way you can work your way backwards. I'm sure like Steve says, there are probably some other settings in your router that need to be set up. If I can do it, any trained chimp can.

At last! It works OK now.

I understood the problem from the beggining, only I did not know how to set the parameters.

Thanks to Paul for addressing exactly the point I was looking for to setup.

Steve: Yes, routers and modems are really myriads of parameters to set, nobody knows exactly what all this things do, and usually each device has different terminology from others making things even worse.

Rhino: I prefer not to do so even for a second!

Well, you may wonder what fix the problem? Time! Just time. I had to wait a couple of hours for DynDNS to make my settings active...

Thanks Steve. It was really good luck on the matter, as I had a friend on the outside to have a look at the address I gave him. At first there was no response. After a couple of hours, my phone rang and, surprise, my friend told me that he had access to the link!

Pure luck the hole story!
