I run a small weather station that acts as a web server. Recently it's become impossible to access it via the web, though I can still access it over my local network. Some details:
* My ISP is AT&T using their Uverse service. * The server was accessible from the web a month or so ago. * The server has web address oaklandweather.no-ip.org, which currently resolves to 99.121.57.131, and probably will for some time. * I can ping the server either over the LAN or via the web without trouble. * An attempt to connect to the weather station as a web server (HTTP) times out.
I'm pretty sure that the Uverse gateway is set up correctly: It worked properly in the past and I haven't made any changes to it. An inspection of the settings doesn't show anything obviously wrong.
Has AT&T changed its terms of service? I vaguely remember the terms of service don't allow customers to run servers; but I can't find any such restriction in documents available on the web. Also the (AT&T supplied) gateway has a function to explicitly open a "pinhole" allowing HTTP service from a computer on the customer side of the gateway.
Thanks - jon

Do a google search for microsoft and no-ip. You may have gotten clobbered by microsoft.

Jack,
Telus is my ISP and they block port 80. As a test I recently added "Listen 81" to my apache2.conf file and restarted the http service. Now when I want to connect to my computer from off-site I use the form URL:91 and I get through fine. It looks to me as if you are getting blocked. I think ping uses ICMP not http.

Jack,
Telus is my ISP and they block port 80. As a test I recently added "Listen 81" to my apache2.conf file and restarted the http service. Now when I want to connect to my computer from off-site I use the form URL:91 and I get through fine. It looks to me as if you are getting blocked. I think ping uses ICMP not http.
Most home ISPs block common "server" ports to prevent high bandwidth usage on their networks. Typically they'll block ports 80, 443, 25, 465, 8080 and a number of others. If you want those ports unblocked, you typically have to sign up for their "business class" service or use non-blocked ports (such as 81, 8081, whatever).
Both ping and traceroute use ICMP, so the missing ping or traceroute is because either the target isn't there or ICMP is being blocked by the provider. Blocking ICMP is often done by the provider because they think it helps protect their users from port probers ("gee, there's no machine at that IP so there's no reason to try to break in").
You could use traceroute with a "-T" option (to try a TCP SYN probe), but you also need to specify a port you know the machine is listening on but is NOT blocked by the ISP. Most ISPs don't block SSH on port 22, so a "traceroute -T -p 22 <ipaddress>" may succeed IF you have sshd listening on port 22. No guarantees, however.

I run a small weather station that acts as a web server. Recently it's become impossible to access it via the web, though I can still access it over my local network. Some details:
- My ISP is AT&T using their Uverse service.
- The server was accessible from the web a month or so ago.
- The server has web address oaklandweather.no-ip.org, which
currently resolves to 99.121.57.131, and probably will for some time.
- I can ping the server either over the LAN or via the web without
trouble.
- An attempt to connect to the weather station as a web server
(HTTP) times out.
I'm pretty sure that the Uverse gateway is set up correctly: It worked properly in the past and I haven't made any changes to it. An inspection of the settings doesn't show anything obviously wrong.
Has AT&T changed its terms of service? I vaguely remember the terms of service don't allow customers to run servers; but I can't find any such restriction in documents available on the web. Also the (AT&T supplied) gateway has a function to explicitly open a "pinhole" allowing HTTP service from a computer on the customer side of the gateway.
Do a google search for microsoft and no-ip. You may have gotten
clobbered by microsoft.
It looks like there may be further problems. Note that I can ping oaklandweather.no-ip.org, but not connect to it as a web server. Is it possible for M$ to mess up the DNS entry so that ping is resolved correctly but HTTP is not? Here's the failure report from Konqueror:

Hi Jonathon,
I just tried pinging 99.121.57.131 and got no reply.

You can also use -I to make it use ICMP ECHO for the probes, but that requires root.
