Hi confusious
Assuming you're using a router.
Success in logging in to your external WAN Ip depends on a couple of things
1) Some routers can't handle logging in using your external IP address.
2) Have you set up port forwarding on your router? If you haven't then no one will be able to join your server. There are several posts/faqs telling you how to do this if you search round the site
