NodeJS server only works on hosting machine, not on other devices

I have set up a Node.js server on my computer, using the following code:

var http = require('http');
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
    res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
    res.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(1337, "0.0.0.0");
console.log('Server running');

Now, when I use this computer to go to http://localhost:1337/, http://127.0.0.1:1337/ or http://192.168.178.28:1337/ (192.168.178.28 being my IPv4 address), it works fine.
When i try and use my iPad to visit the last one (ipv4 address) it doesn't work. Why could this be?

Okay, turns out resetting my router did the job. Thanks to lazlojuly and Gonzalo Bahamondez for trying to help!
