How are you trying to access things on the local network? 
Are you attempting to go to your domain from inside and you're being
prompted to login to the netgear router's web console?

You will need to define your necessary hosts in your
winnt\system32\drivers\etc\host file in order to bypass this problem or
install a DNS server on your network and point your machines to this DNS
server.

Let me know if this is the problem.

It sounds like it's merely a host <-> IP resolving problem.  If so, it's
an easy fix.

 1) Add all your host-ip mappings to the hosts file on each machine on
    your network.

 or

 2) Install a DNS server that will resolve your domain internally to 
    the IP addresses of your private LAN/network.

Cheers!
