http:// works on intranet but not internet

I was able to access SVN server from different machines by using my public ip address, such as http://146.115.74.4/svn/repository1, within my home network. But I cannot access it from outside with internet. The test web page behave the same. I am using the default port: 80.

I have configured my FVS318 NETGRAR router forwarding the http traffic to my web server machine which is the same machine as the SVN server.
Any idea?
Thanks,James

You can use the 'svn relocate' command to tell the working copy that the
repository moved to a different URL.

If I changed the http:// access port, do I need to checkout my working copy or I can just switch to the "new" address, or there is no affect my existing working copy?

Many ISPs block port 80 unless you purchase a “commercial grade” internet connection. Check your terms and conditions. You’ll probably find some language that explicitly prohibits you from running a server.
This is easy enough to work around. Just have your web server listen on a different port other than the well known http port 80.
