New Router Problem - Please Help!

I recently got a new router (Netgrear MR814) to replace a linksys BEFW11S4 (it still works except for the wireless). The new router works fine to use the internet..., however my apache webserver does not work. I am using WinXP and noticed that the Internet Gateway will not appear with the new router and if I connect to the old router the Internet Gateway appears and the server works. I tried to change the DHCP server so that the IP addy is the same as the old one and that dident work. I think it would work if I coudld make a new connection under the Internet gateway thing in XP, but the connection wizard doesent make on. The inlaws are driving me mad b/c they cant see the pics of their new granddaughter! I would greately appreciate any help, thanks!
 
I am very familiar with that router. you need to go into the router config, and forward port 80 to your machine's IP. Then reserve that IP for your machine. It will still do dhcp, but this ensures that you will always get the same one, when you reboot or whatever.
 
Thanks for the reply- I actually already did that though. I load the pages on my computer... I think it has to do with XP and not the router. For some reason it will not make one of the Internet Connections in the Internet Gateway. Thanks for the reply
