Trying here, before asking the Wordpress community.
I have a Wordpress instance set up on a VM on the Synology. (It talks to a db on separate host, but that shouldn't matter.) Internally it works fine.
One the internet modem I have forwarded 8080 to 80 on the VM. From an external host I can
I can even load the login page of the WP site in the browser. All this says to me I should be good to go. But as soon as I try to login, the site just hangs there. So there's obviously something I'm missing.
Aside from the fact, there is possibly some WP knowledge I need to understand, is there anything idiosyncratic w.r.t. the Synology I need to understand pls?

telnet myhost.mydomain.com 8080
