What about it do you want accessible? Your question doesn't make it clear what you're asking, and this has most likely been answered before. – earthmeLon Jan 28 '17 at 19:33

1@AbdallaNiYang i had the same problem what the problem was that my router din't support loopback so i could NOT acces my own external address but my friend could. Check if the port you use is open with this site: http://www.canyouseeme.org/ The other thing is that some ISP's block the http ports of being opened. – Cyber_Star Jan 28 '17 at 20:44
