I can't get nginx online

I need help setting up my nginx server. nginx has no problem serving LOCAL requests. But whenever I try to send requests from ELSEWHERE, it gives an error 504 message. Setting up SSH was not NEARLY this confusing. Please help.
 
You might want to start checking the Nginx logfiles, those should give you a clue as to what is going on. In general, a 504 error usually indicates a problem with a gateway of some sort. See for example this article.

Hi.

Please post your nginx.conf (plus any additional Nginx configuration files) and the log entries made when receiving your 504s in response to URI requests.

I thought you might have a Fast CGI timeout issue but you're not even passing PHP. Your configuration is stock so I'm guessing the problem is peripheral to Nginx, but I'm not qualified to provide a diagnosis. Hopefully some of the network gurus will chime in.
 
This may be an issue depending on how the "Host" sent by the browser. Try removing the server_name directive, or setting it to the IP address and accessing it that way. Also see if the default_server option on the listen port helps catch the request.

In this case, it will use the first server block anyways. Since there is one, this won't make a difference.

What does ls -l /data/www/index.html return? Is this readable by the www user? The other messages in your error log are for favicon.ico are just the browser getting the little favorite's icon to use in a bookmark or your history. It doesn't mean much.
 
I may be going blind of old age but I don't see any 504 errors in the logs. Are you sure you're looking for the right thing?
 
Do you have favicon.ico on nginx ?
Code: 
location / {
            root   /data/www;
            index  index.html index.htm;
        }
You only have errors about favicon. Check if you have favicon.ico in ../usr/local/www/nginx/favicon.ico.
 
Okay, I found out that it's a problem with my ISP.
They're blocking all external HTTP requests to my server... x(
