That is tricky. I was only able to get it to work on wifi with a local NAT number (http://192.168.0.4:8787/). I would imagine you would have to open a port, then somehow assign that port to a numbered URL that is associated with the router's IP address. I hate doing that stuff as it never seems to work for me...
