If you run a firewall on the machine with the Apache running, you need to open
port 80 (for TCP packages). For router you need to see to port forward port 80
to the machines on which Apache is running (see your route documentation).
See to not bind to an ip-number in your apache configuration, as if you do
this, apache will wait for connections only on that ip-number and refuse those
forwarded from the router as these will have the external ip-number in the
HTTP-requester. Binding to an ip-name is okey, as long as it points on the
apache server on itself in the hosts file and that the external DNS points at
your public ip-number.
