So over the past couple of days I have been experimenting with settings on my router to see if I could get external access. I found two settings that I thought might be what was need.

See attachment rouuter1.jpg. I could not get image insertion to work.

I tried this with both entries in this table (as shown) as well as with only one or the other. No success.

See attachment router 2.jpg

Again I tried this with both entries in this table (as shown) as well as with only one or the other. No success.

So unless one of you or someone else has any further ideas I may just go with the idea suggested by slm.

Karma to you all for attempting to help.
The 192.168.1.1 should be your router AND not open to the outside: I suggest removing this entry.

We will assume that 192.168.2 is your Calibre PC

Code:
outside->router 8080 forwarded to192.168.1.2->CalibrePC
