I had a similar problem using Windows 8.1 and Android. When I used http: // localhost: 8100 / , it loaded correctly in my desktop version of Chrome, but using my local IP address in the desktop browser, i.e. 192.168.1.185:8100 I have a "Connection refused" error. Needless to say, this also didn't work in Chrome on my mobile device.
To solve this problem, Port Forwarding was used in accordance with https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/remote-debugging#port-forwarding
That way, I could open the site using "localhost: 8100" and not the IP address of my mobile device in Chrome, and the site was uploaded and debugged correctly.
