Hello,
My web server is set on port 8080 which is obviously open in the router because I surf with chrome,
the webserver hasn't loaded for a few days,
only in the local network with the IP of the network card the webserver opens
how to fix it?

That statement does not make much sense.

1) You have to set your PC to a static IP in the network settings OR in your router you have to set a static DHCP ip for your pc.
2) You have to set up this :8080 port forward to this set IP.
3) You have to set up a DDNS in the router configuration. It's like a Dynamic Address. For example "donnje.ddns.net" which will always point to your IP. If your router can't do it, a lot of providers give you very lightweight clients that you just run on your PC 24-7 and they take care of updating this address.

Good luck!

your local (pc's) IP might have changed. that's why I recommended setting a fixed ip in network settings or using static dhcp.
