I'm building a home automation project, I have a websocket server I've built with pythons websocket and asyncio libraries. When I use a python client testing script and use local host to connect, it works perfectly. However, when I use my computers IPv4 address it doesn't. I've tried connecting using esp's, raspberry pi's and the same testing script on the same computer. Any idea's?

    This means the server is not reachable outside of local-host. Since it's working in local-host, the problem is not in the code. Maybe the firewall of your computer is blocking the port? Try switching to another port. – tenacity Jul 11 '22 at 05:00
  • Also what OS are you running this on? – tenacity Jul 11 '22 at 05:01
  • I did a little bit of searching, this answer can give you more insights https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21410435/connect-websocket-server-by-lan-ip-address – tenacity Jul 11 '22 at 05:01
  • I actually figured out that it was the firewall right after I posted this – badhabit16 Jul 11 '22 at 05:07
