Front Panel Viewing using URL on my phone

Will LabVIEW webserver only work when using the same network as host device? For example, I want to monitor my running labview.vi from my phone using the URL given by the web publishing tool, but it only works when my phone is connected to the same network as host device. when using mobile data, the link doesn't work.

 

-I Have follow necessary procedures based on manual including VI and browser Access

If Your computer is on a private network behind a NAT router, a computer can only reach it via the public IP of the router and only if the correct ports have been forwarded to the PC.

 

This is a networking issue not specific to LabVIEW. Typically you would also need to set up a dynamic DNS service because the public IP can change. You might also need to adjust firewall rules.

 

(Note that there are other techniques that big companies use, for example you can reach your private cameras or remote desktop easily from the "outside". Since NAT routers only allow return traffic for connections established from the LAN side, these connections rely on riding on return traffic established from the inside and require relevant infrastructure.)
