I am trying to set up a web server on my laptop that could be accessed publicly using my public ip(ex. http://123.45.678.910/), but I am stuck with port forwarding issue(or so I think).
So this is my set up:
Desktop is connect to the internet directly with LAN cable.
Laptop is connect to the internet only through Wi-Fi.
On my laptop, when I type "localhost", "127.0.0.1" or "192.168.0.6"(laptop's ip) into the browser's address bar I get directed to the webpage running on my Apache Server, so the web server is working. But when I type in my public ip I am directed to the router set-up page.
How to forward the ip so that the person typing in the address bar my public ip could access the Apache Server that runs on my laptop(which is connected to the internet through Wi-Fi)?
