How to access a URL on port 80 via android browser

my android device cannot access a URL: 

http://myip:8080/alias

I tried another port of my service (80, running a service apache too) and works! The tests, i'm doing from web browser of my device. From my computer (on same network), both URL works!

The problem like a firewall. I cant access a port different of 80.

Thanks,

It's likely that the problem is related to your web service rather than your android device, as you should be able to access pages on non-80 ports without any issue.

Have you tried using fiddler or another debugging proxy to check the response from the server?

If not, this may be useful

Edit: also, you mention that you can view it on port 80 on your android device, perhaps try disabling your firewall on your PC?
