i'm assuming that the wifi device you are trying to connect to also has a built-in web server. and that you are trying to connect to this web server.

just a guess here, but perhaps the connection is not possible because you are NOT using the direct ip address. if you are trying to connect by using the website name you've set for the device, then your device will also need DNS information. for instance, without DNS, you cannot get to google.com by typing in "google.com" in the url bar. but it is possible to get to google.com by typing 216.58.219.14. and since this device is itself not connected to the internet, it would be unable to use DNS regardless (unless the device also has a DNS server built-in).
