I ran a test myself and had no issues with accessing from a phone on the same
network.
Note that one tool you can use to check is not an issue with local network
configuration is:
traceroute -p 8000 A.B.C.D
If you have also changed any network access points recently, do be aware that
some, especially if using a guess network, will prevent access between machines
on the same sub net by default and you have to allow it in the router
configuration.
