I have made a webserver with component TIdHTTPServer
default port = 80
it works on http://localhost/readme.html
My computer workes with a router IP 10.0.0.37
How ever my external ip is 79.179.191.120
What i am trying to do is to read readme.html with my Android S6 phone and chrome.
http://79.179.191.120/readme.html and it dose not work !!!.
Do i need to put this software on a SERVER ? or can i use
it from a "regular" computer?
And there is another way i can use my software so that my computer
is to receive this 79.179.191.120. without being a server?
My Delphi is 10.2.1 and i do not have Datasnap |

Maybe you didn't config your router to forward and open port 80 to your local IP 10.0.0.37
Google: "router open port 80"

No. You have to open the port 80 on your router to your intern IP address of that computer.
Your router might block port 80 to your computer. Normally this is the case because you can add
more computers on your router and you have to tell the router what computer is allowed to receive the HTPP requests.
Also check your (Windows) Firewall software if it is blocking port 80..
