I have searched all the topics regarding this, but my issue is a bit different than what I'm seeing.
I have a website address pointing to my global ip. The website is in the config file to connect to. On my host pc I have the website pointing to my local ip. All this works fine for the host and anyone connecting from outside. My problem is my other pc on the same wifi will not connect with the website (which makes sense because it's connected through that ip) nor will it connect through the host's local ip. The character list does come up when I use the local ip.
I'm sure there's a way to make it work, but I'm clearly missing something.
EDIT: Within minutes of posting of course I immediately stumbled onto something. More of a workaround than a solution. If you use a VPN it will allow you to connect like an outside pc. Not optimal but definitely a good option.
