You need to find out what IP the router use on the Internet.

The purpose of the router is to route traffic from the computers in your private network to the Internet, and from the Internet to your private network.

Most likely you can see this IP somewhere in the GUI for the router.

So your content server connect to the router, using a specific port, and the router forwards the connection out to the Internet. Inside your private network the content server probably use a IP like 192.168.0.101. On the Internet you connect to your router using the IP provided by your ISP. Either a fixed IP or a different one everytime you connect. It depends on what type of Internet connection you have bought.
