I am running a server with Server 2008 R2 and installed WAMP, forwarded port 80 on my router for that machine, and all was well. I even had a no-ip.org account so you didn't have to connect directly to a bunch of numbers.

My roommate also has access to this server, and installed his on WAMP on his account, basically overwriting my install and defaulting everything to his. I have since uninstalled all of his stuff and reinstalled it to properly point to the old directory, but it is not reachable by any other machine, LAN or Internet. I have already done all the basic stuff, it is not Skype, as we have it off on both our regular desktops (and the option is set to not use port 80 anyway) and I have made sure it is "Put Online" (we are using wampserver2). On the local machine, localhost works just fine, and on the router, I have forwarded port 80 for it (it actually was already there, but I redid it and restarted the router just to be sure it wasn't glitching out.

I have even actually tried running WAMP on completely different ports, and it just absolutely refuses to work. All of my other servers are running fine (the Minecraft, SVN, FTP, etc all work with no issues). When I go to canyouseeme.org every port that should be open and accessible is working, but any port I assign wamp to and make all the arrangements for in the router, it just refuses to connect to the outside world (and it doesn't even work over LAN!). I have reinstalled it a few times, but I am at a loss for what could be causing this.
