Chat between two different computers

Question

I’m new to this socket thing and I’m having trouble connecting two computers that are on the same network. When I run the client and the server on the same machine, it works... but when I do it on different machines, the server does not identify the client connection.

I have read many questions and answers in various forums, watched videos on youtube, tried different solutions, already put the server IP in client code and nothing...

Would anyone know what I’m doing wrong? Thank you!
