Cann't connect to router remotely

[lenny]

i have a static IP address so have configured the router to enable me to
configure it remotely. When I am on the LAN i need to type in the static IP
then :82 to connect to the configure pages of the router and it works fine.
When I go out of the office and try to connect from another computer outside
the LAN i only get the 'this page can not be displayed page.

Any ideas why that is?

Cheers
Lenny
