Mac Networking Help needed in Sydney

[whatachamp]

Hi guys,
I have successfully set up MAMP on my iMac (running Lion), been able to give people outside my network a url, and they've been able to access sites I have set up within that configuration.
Suddenly however, its not working & I can't figure out why. Pulling out my hair here.
MAMP seems to work, and I can get web sharing to work without MAMP. However accessing my network externally is still not working.
I can't figure out the port mapping...maybe thats the problem.

Can anyone recommend a person/service in the Sydney (Aus) area that could help me with this? Any links/names appreciated.

Thanks

Maybe your public-facing IP address changed?

OK well, this seems to happen to me alot, I agonise over a problem for days, finally I post the question in the forum, then immediately after posting I solve the problem myself!
My router ip did not match the setting in the port mapping config.

All the same, if anyone can recommend a mac networking guru located in the Sydney area that would still be appreciated, as I'd like to get my setup checked given that I use it in my line of work.

Any reason in particular you aren't using a hosting provider?

So I'm guessing you need to assign your server a static IP in your router.
