    The document is a Reddit post asking for help because the poster's Metasploit reverse_tcp handler failed to bind. Several responders explained that the handler cannot bind to the WAN IP and must bind to the local IP instead. They also warned the poster that sharing their public IP could enable denial of service attacks and advised resetting the IP.

    If you want a connection over WAN you have to configure your router, enable port forwarding.

    1. You can't bind your WAN address (which you just disclosed on a hacking forum by the way... Bad move,
    you should delete this if you don't want to get ddos'ed by assholes). Bind to your local ipv4 address (you
    can use 0.0.0.0 to say "listen on all interfaces", and you have to redirect port 4444 on your router to your
    computer
    2. metasploit doesn't get stuck, you just instructed it to start a handler, which it did. If you want to start it
    in the background and still be able to use commands, run it as a job with "exploit -j"

    You have to listen on your local IP (local host)

    Please reset your ip, you just shared your public ip address and any asshole can DDoS you now.
