If you're NATed with a dynamic IP, get a subdomain redirect
(dyndys.org?) and just edit the subdomain redirect when your IP
changed. Then put the subdomain address in your tor config. Some
dynamic dns services even have programs that run on your computer
that will automatically update the DNS listing every x hours.

Looks like you might be going through a NAT.
Add the following to your tor server config file:
Address [your external ip address]
Normally tor tries to figure this out on its own, in your case it
couldn't.
