I installed an L2TP VPN network on my iMac using OS X Lion Server app. It works fine in testing (from iPad and iPhone) when I use my wireless access on my network (accessing the external IP address), but am unable to access from other WiFi networks. What did I miss?

If you are using the external facing IP address (the public one) have you enabled the relevant VPN ports on the router?
