Unable to Load Weblink on Phone #6

When I initialize weblink, I receive an ip as follows 192.168.xx.x:8080. When I tried accessing the ip on both an android and apple phone, they were not able to access the webpage. Could you please provide guidance on how to fix this issue. I have the latest version of weblink 1.1.2

Hi @istp4lmrs! Please make sure that your computer is connected to the hotspot before you start weblink. Normally it should print an address like 172.20.x.x:8080.

Also, it could be that weblink is not detecting the right interface to listen on. In that case, please send me the output of the following command: ruby -rsocket -e 'pp Socket.getifaddrs.map { [_1, _1.addr] }'

Hi Soylent! I did connect to my computer before I started weblink. This is the output from the command. Am I suppose to set the proxy on the windows level or chrome level?

It looks like weblink is not selecting the right address. Can you start weblink and open http://192.168.126.180:8080 on your phone?

Thank you! That seemed to do the trick
