I've been trying for days now to be able to access my ESP8266 from outside my local network.
I have port forwarding set up as described in multiple tutorials and I still fail to communicate with the device.
I have a raspberry PI live-streaming with which I used the same port forwarding method and it works perfectly.
I can communicate perfectly with the ESP8266 over my home network using the IP 192.168.0.19 and port number 8080, but cannot seem to access it using my global IP
Have any of you experienced this issue before?
Do i need to configure my ESP8266 differently for this? Currently in CWMODE=3
Is there another port that you have had success with, i've tried 80,8080,8081 etc and still no success.
Thanks
