    So i recently changed isp and that gave me this 2701HG-G Gateway router which i need to get my connection but the thing is i use to host a web server and a other servers. but since i got this router i can run anything im just quite stuck i use to just have to add a port in my firewall and it would work fine.but now i doesn't.

    i have 2 ips
    70.55.66.xx
    192.168.2.x

    so i can host once on 192.168.2.x but i cant seem to get my it do run on the 70.55 ip and my dns is on the 70.55 and when i go to a website it says my ip is 70.55 so i think you get it. so what am i suppose to do??

    and sorry for my grammar English is not my native language.

    Your 70.75.x.x IP is your external IP which is what you need to go to now to access your webserver. You may need to go to the site that you purchased the domain names from and change them to the new IP address.

    The 192.168.x.x is your internal IP addresses. In the new gateway.router, you need to forward port 80 to the internal IP address of the webserver.

    If you are running two routers, (the new gateway is a router and what ever you were running for a router before) you will have more problems that will require a lot more detail about your setup.

    I'm not sure I understand your goal. I think you want to host a website on a computer in your home. If that is the case, you need to direct the domain name to your external IP through the registrar of the domain name. You also need to have the webserver connected to your router with the router forwarding port 80 to the internal IP address of the webserver.
