I have a simple home network with win2000 machines. and one apache2 server B
at home. I can test the apache2 server from any local machine. I have one
VDSL connection to my ISP.

To access my apache2 server ' from the internet' I need to contact a friend,
who with his/her browser can check, whether my server is accessible and how
the browsing speed is, browser compatibility with actual line connection
(instead of ethernet) etc, I could also do the test in an internet cafee,
public library or similar location once or twice, but that is an awkward
solution to use very often.

Instead of bothering a friend I would like to do the tests myself easily
without needing to invest to another separate internet connection (with a
dial up line e.g.).

This idea failed:
If I have auxiliary homepages A somewhere outside my lan (at a free homepage
space provider, e.g. yahoo), and link from there to my apache2 server
pages B, then my browser at home near B obviously finds the shortest
route(=lan) to the apache server B, not needing to use the VDSL-connection
to fetch the the pages B. Of course.

Is there software or other low cost / free means to do this testing? Or any
ideas?
