I am using an Airport router which I have set up to forward port 8080.

But if I type in my public IP with the port in my web browser, it says unavailable. I am also now trying to access the content server from Aldiko. I added the content server as a catalog in Aldiko, but all attempts to access it result in a timeout.

I'm assuming that somehow my airport router is causing the problem here, but I don't know what more I can do but forward the port? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
Did you OK it (calibre.exe:8080) with your Firewall on your PC ?
