Can you clarify what you mean by "expose it's methods through port forwarded internet router"?

I set up my wireless router to accept in/outbound communications on a specified port. What I'm trying to figure out now is how to set up my webapi to communicate with a web client.

Are you trying to develop a web server? Ir some other sort of server?

Yes, I have a RESTful WebApi service that I'm trying to connect to remotely via http requests.

This has nothing to do with web api. This is only a network issue..
