cannot connect to wordpress.com from homeserver
-
I installed wordpress on my homeserver with a domain name from godaddy. In godaddy, I set a forward to a secondary domain from no-ip. My router has built in DynDNS to no-ip.
All works well, and I can visit my website from outside. When visiting website from inside, the browser asked for user name and password as if I am visiting the router configuration page. After 2 days search and trying, I eventually found this page: https://superuser.com/questions/260014/access-internal-ip-using-public-ip. Following one of its suggestions, I changed the hosts table of my desktop, and now I can visit my website.
However, JetPack installation failed at last step as it cannot connect to the wordpress.com. I guess there is trouble to establish two-way communication due to the same reason in: https://superuser.com/questions/260014/access-internal-ip-using-public-ip
Could JetPack guru help in this difficult situation?
As the dyndns is not free anymore, even no-ip poses limitations, life for selfhosting is ……
