I'm afraid I don't understand. Is IIS on your LAN and you want to connect to it from the internet? If so, it depends on what services you are using in IIS. If IIS is just hosting web sites, you need to port forward tcp:80 and tcp:443 to the IIS machine. If you choose to forward a Service in the firewall, forward HTTP and HTTPS. FTP is more problematic.

    You have a couple of choices with your set up as you web server is listening on a non-standard port. You could just forward port 82, or you can forward external port 80 to internal port 82 in the Port Forwarding module. One way you access the webserver from externally using the standard http port, the other way you access it using port 82. Remove the two port forwarding rules you've already set up.

    About xyz.poweredbyclear.com, if you have registered you box with Clearcenter, you get a free poweredbyclear.com FQDN. You can see yours in Webconfig > Cloud > Services > Dynamic DNS your subdomain is the xyz bit and you can change it to something more memorable if no one else has taken the name you want. I would expect the webconfig to tell you if the name is not available. Alternatively you can change the name in your Clearcenter account in Systems > Network/Dynamic DNS. The name should then sync back to your system. If your WAN IP address then changes, your FQDN will automatically point to the new IP address. You should then be able to access your website by name rather than IP address.

    Please can you confirm that you have not opened the incoming firewall to ports 80/443 or HTT/HTTPS? They must not be open or port forwarding will fail.

    On IIS, please can you check that the firewall is open to external traffic and not just LAN traffic?

    I'm afraid I don't understand about being "accessed from a different network". Normally you would access your web server using a FQDN such as the free one provided by Clearcenter (xyz.poweredbyclear.com). Then to access the web server from your LAN, if ClearOS is dong the DNS resolution for your LAN, you put an entry in the ClearOS DNS Server for xyz.poweredbyclear.com pointing to the LAN IP of your IIS machine. This way xyz.poweredbyclear.com works both internally and externally
