Two things to try: Firstly, make sure that the Windows firewall on the server has an exception for port 8443 and that the exception is enabled.
Secondly, you can't use your external IP address to access a server on your local network as most NAT implementations don't support it. You need to use the internal IP address of the server when on the LAN, and the external IP address of the server when outside the LAN. If you are running an local DNS server, you can get it to map your server name to the internal address for you.
