This behavior (or just timing out) seems to be common with these NAT
devices. I think this has something to do with NAT and how the routers
handle the requests that come from inside the system. I'd think this
shouldn't be a problem, but since you are the 4th person I know of who
has mentioned this, it must be more difficult than I thought.

The only thing I could think of to do is modify /etc/hosts but that
doesn't apply to just port 80
