Issue
Let me explain what I want to happen.
I have an http server program that displays a website every time I connect to my raspberry pi's ip address on port 8080. But this only works on my current network. I want to be able to access this raspberry pi from any network by typing a website address. How would I connect my URL to this raspberry pi so that I can just type the domain and it will take me to my raspberry pi?
P.S. I have already tried searching for this extensively, but none of the results fits my needs
Thank you in advance,
Nick.
Solution
Assuming that your current network is your home network and any network is the internet as such, I think your question points into the direction of dynamic DNS (DDNS).
DDNS allows you to assign a fixed domain name to the (usually) varying external IP adresses of your home network.
This would make your PI reachable to the outside world. Search for DDNS providers.
