Home web address goes to router.

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

I am hosting a webpage on my network, I have added the Hairpin rule, which seems to work as I can connect to the webpage from a pc on my lan. This only works if I set the webserver to a port other than 80. When set to 80 I get the router home page.
As a beginner to this router I am hoping that someone can help me get it fixed. I would like to keep my page at port 80.

Thanks in advance

The Hairpin is used so that you can access the server from your local LAN using the public IP address or URL. To get port 80 to forward to the server you need a Destination NAT

add action=dst-nat chain=dstnat comment="Web Server on Jupiter." \
    dst-port=80 in-interface=E10_Fiber_Internet protocol=tcp
    to-addresses=192.168.201.11 to-ports=80
add action=dst-nat chain=dstnat comment="Web Server on Jupiter." \
    dst-port=443 in-interface=E10_Fiber_Internet protocol=tcp
    to-addresses=192.168.201.11 to-ports=443

The first one forwards port 80 to my server (named Jupiter), and the other one forwards port 443 to Jupiter. Jupiter has an IP of 192.168.201.11. In my case I am specifying the in-interface as my fiber based Internet connection. I could have also used an interface list of WAN, but I wanted to restrict access to just the one ISP.

It also sounds as you have not turned off all router services either… post complete config
