Anyone want to help an idiot (me) get my external sharing working? I've got the port 5055 opened on my router (can confirm with an online tool, check the IP and port, shows that it's open), but when I visit the URL http://[my-ip]:5055 it doesn't resolve.
Do I need the port in the address bar? Do should I have forwarded the port 5055 to a different port? Right now I have TCP 5055 to 5055. Again, a network check shows the port is open. What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks!

If you have it open in the router, it's likely an issue on your server/pc. You could try (to test, not permanent) to disable things like windows firewall (if you're on windows).

Hey thanks for answering! I think it was that I had 5055 open but not mapped to anything. Got it working now, with extranl port 80 mapping to internal port 5055

Yeah that would cause issues 😄 you can also still map it to 5055 externally, but then you would indeed need to put http://[my-ip]:5055 with the port number, something you don't need for port 80
