In august I posted a question here about setting up a Wordpress blog on the B3.
This works fine now, but only local access from the laptops en netbooks at home.
How do I make the wordpress blog on the B3 reachable from the internet. Do I have to configure something
on my router. I have the B3 version that has now own WIFI or router functions, so is a B3 server connected
to my D-Link router.

Wordpress blog access from the Internet
Re: Wordpress blog access from the Internet
In the router you need to port-forward port 80 to the ip-address of your B3. Port 80 is standard http://-port and all requests on that port from internet needs to be passed on to the B3.

Isn't it advisable to use https instead of http ? And is that the same port ?

No, it's a different port - 443. For a blog that's going to be publicly accessible it isn't worth using https. However, if it's going to be private and have some kind of authentication method then yes, use https.force317 wrote:Isn't it advisable to use https instead of http ? And is that the same port ?
