I have a web server being port forwarded (ex: www.mywebsite.com).

DNS resolves properly from every client, inside and outside LAN.

If I try to connect via a browser (Chrome or FireFox, Windows/Linux/Android) from INSIDE my LAN, it will FAIL.

If I try to connect via a browser from OUTSIDE my LAN (ex: same cell phone but not on Wifi) it will WORK.

 

Am I missing a configuration setting somewhere, or is this a bug?

    Can someone confirm that this issue is the same as 

      and the solution is to essentially return the device because it doesn’t support “NAT loopback” ?
