I've been running a web server on my cable line, using my Linksys router to forward port 80 traffic to the appropriate machine. This was working fine until the latest round of reorganization. Now, neither setting the forwarding, setting the DMZ host, or both to the server machine seems to work. I don't think that this is a problem with my ISP, as I've had the server working before. Any suggestions as to settings to poke at are eagerly accepted.

Make sure block wan request is disabled.

Set your server to listen on port 8080, open up that port in the router and see if you can connect. With the recent outbreak of new and modified worms some ISP that didn't block ports are doing so now. If you can connect on 8080 then 80 is probably blocked.
