Tunnel Connection Failed error when accessing WP site from external network

  • I have a LAMP server setup at home with wordpress. Static IP on the server and port 80 forwarded on the router to that server. Apache listening on port 80 and virtual host configured accordingly.

    It was working fine but now when I browse to my domain gws.voyez.ca (that points to my public IP) browser just shows “Tunnel Connection Failed”. Oddly enough, I can still access pages in that folder (eg. gws.voyez.ca/test.html or gws.voyez.ca/phpinfo.php serve fine). This only happens externally; on internal LAN no issues. Have tried from multiple devices and different browsers.

    It was working fine for a few weeks and just seems to have broken (no changes that I can think of).

    Potentially ISP blocking something?

    Thanks for reading.

  • I’m not sure what it means but the failure message comes from the router at 192.168.0.101 so maybe reboot your gateway router or the router between your server and the gateway…

    The DNS records I see from here points to what I imagine is your IP address… my original suspicion was the DNS pointing at an internal address.

    Thanks for your answer. I have my site domain pointing to my public IP, and then on my router traffic on that port is forwarded to 192.168.0.101 (internal server IP). So it looks like it forwards ok but something fails in between.
