That ip address is your local address. You have to know your public address to access your system outside your LAN. Read this guide.

edit: Once you have found your public ip address, port forwarded, properly configured your device,and set up/disabled firewalls, then the address should look something like this.

http://66.91.19.1:81

66.91.19.1 is an example public address and 81 is the port number.
