I suggest NOT using port 8080 as that is the most common (default)
Wireless to the host is also more complicated (WiFi security measures). Use a CAT5 cable when ever possible between the router and the host PC |
right now i can access the content server on iphone and android but thats it, not sure why.....
i use wix for my website and it doesnt allow http just https, so it wont just show in an embed thing, and i wonder if thats also why it wont redirect
ive been scouring and searching now for 3 days trying to figure this out, so i want you to know all the help is sooooo appreciated especially because i dont speak computer unless its and excel sheet lol
most of what im finding for answers is in some type of code you change on a server...
anywho, thank you for all the help, also nothing on our network worth stealing, just our rokus, a high school laptop that is locked down like fort knox, and my personal laptop that i only use for my ebooks and calibre
