remote control OBI

(1/3) > >>

Hi, I am trying to setup my obi so I can remote control it from another country. Currently, my obi is behind a fios router (192.168.1.1). I set static IP for obi at 192.168.1.27. If I do port forwarding (in the router's firewall) of port 80 to the OBi, I can access it ok using the host I registered with no-ip. If I don't forward port 80, the host from no-ip will go to the router page. My question is: is there anyway I can access both the router and the obi using 2 different ports? Can I change the port 80 in Obi to something else? Every time I change port on Obi, I cant access it using the 192.168... anymore.
Thanks

Change the OBi to port 8080:

System Management -> Device Admin -> Port : 8080

and forward port 8080 in your router instead of port 80.

In your browser, use : http://hostname:8080

or (locally) http://192.168.x.y:8080

Thanks for your response.
It works but kind of weird. Lets say after I reset everything back to original, I change the port to 8080 and it works. But every time after I change the port, I go change the obi IP, I cant access the 192.168.x.y:8080 anymore. So I have to reset again...
Any idea?

VaHam:
You should be able to just forward port 8080 on your router to port 80 on your OBi.

I can't figure out what you're saying/doing.  Sorry.
