Domain Pointed To Static IP - Router?

I have no idea what to do to fix this, but I have a domain pointed to my IP. The problem is, when I visit the domain, it shows my router page and not my Apache server. I know it is something in the settings, but no idea which settings to adjust. I have been searching and tried various things I found in the forums, but they are either very old and no applicable to my router.

 

Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Fix

On your router, You need to portforward the relevant port ( http & https if you use it ) to your apache server

I would strongly suggest against having your router admin interface exposed to the Internet. What router are you using?
