I have used the external IP and not the internal, for extra good measure I used a proxy hosted off lan to test it.  No luck..

I am using X-WRT currently because I heard that people had more luck with it in some cases.. I also like it's admin UI..

anyhow.. heres my info from Network --> Firewall :

Protocol: TCP
Destination Ports: 1337
Target: 192.168.1.102
(Target) Port: 80

I have also tried setting target port to 1337, with my apache server listening on both 1337 and 80... I have tried leaving the target port blank.. no luck, I would also like it to be known that I tried this the old fashioned way through iptables, editing /etc/firewall.user over vi in ssh.  I have tried with each change both resetting the firewall, and reseting the router itself..  No matter what I do it doesnt seem to work..  I am not new to Linux personally, but new to use of OpenWRT.  Any feedback is welcome, willing to try anything to make this work.

(sorry for pasting as was from admin panel, got lazy )

Hope for anyone to solve my problem. B-)

bump, will bump only one more time after this if no reply.

try to make the destinationport the same as the port you're running on the inside machine..
Also most of the time for proxy's it's only allowed to allow port 80 and 443 (SSL) pass trough
the others are mostly blocked.. check that out?

Good luck

I suggest doing this:

Protocol: tcp
Destination Ports: 80
Target: 192.168.1.102
(Target) Port: 80

Make sure to save and apply changes.  To see if your changes where implemented look in the menu Status/Iptables.  Look for the section forwarding_wan.  You should see something like:

Chain forwarding_wan (1 references)
num pkts bytes target prot opt in out source     destination    options
 -   -    -    ACCEPT  tcp  --  *  *  0.0.0.0/0  192.168.1.102  tcp dpt:80
