I can see site trough domain, not from outside the local network.

  • Hi!

    I installed WordPress on my Raspberry Pi 2 using Apache2. Everything works fine, except connecting my domain name to the site.

    I can acces the site on my local network, on my dns (https://mathiasvissers.ddns.net) and trough my domain name https://www.mathiasvissers.com.

    I’ve set the my WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) to https://www.mathiasvissers.com.

    This works fine for me, but nobody outside the network can acces my site. However, if people use https://mathiasvissers.ddns.net (from No-IP), they can acces my site. If I set both WordPress URLs to this, everything works fine. But I would like to use my domain name instead.

    I think my domain name uses the correct name servers (ns1&2.no-ip.org). I use the www CNAME alias to link my domain name to mathiasvissers.ddns.net.

    So why do you think my domain name only works in the LAN network and not outside of it? And why is it no problem if I change all the settings to my DNS?

    Thank you! ??

    Ps. The domain name is registered with GoDaddy

    Quick note:

    I’ve read that when you change name servers, it can take a while of it to change across the internet. Could this be the cause of the fact that I can work with my domain name, but others can’t?

    I see that your name is registered at Godaddy, however the nameserver settings are: NS1.CHARTER.COM and NS2.CHARTER.COM
    which can’t be correct.
    What does ddns.net tell you to set them to ? The docs or support at no-ip will have the answer.
