http://127.0.0.1 is the local IP address. Every PC uses this address to contact itself. Its just the method Abyss uses incase you dont have a LAN or internet connection.

If you have a direct connection to the internet then you need to find your IP. Go to www.abyssunderground.co.uk/ip for it. If you are behind a firewall or proxy it might not be yours.

If you go through a router, you will need to open port 80 with port forwarding and direct it to the computers LAN IP you are using for abyss. Then get your IP using the method as above.

Some ISP's block port 80 so if you can't access your site then try a different port.
