Hey. I have made a site at http://151.196.249.240 . I cannot access it cause it says not found.

I am using DSL so i guess there is a connection box. Can someone please help?

Do you have a router? (setup port forwarding)
Do you run the Windows XP firewall? (if yes disable it)
Do you run any other firewall? (set it to allow abyss internet access)
Do you have a static (fixed) or dynamic (changing) ip address?

What ip address does this page give you?
http://www.aprelium.com/ip/

if none of this works try a non-standard port, like port 81, as some isp's block port 80.
you would then format your url as "<ip>:81"

And if you answer "yes" to router, then go to http://www.aprelium.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3806 (if you don't know what a router is, then: if you have more than 2 computers connected to the same DSL line, then you have a router).

Your ISP most likely blocks port 80. Change the port in the Abyss console to 85.

It works for me.

Check your hosts file at C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc and open the file named "hosts."
