IP address which starts with192.168. by default is for local network, so if your windows machine isn't in this network it actually can't reach your tomcat. Check ipconfig on your windows machine and try to find address which starts from 192.168. to find it out.

Also you can change your tomcat bind address in the config file tomcat/conf/server.xml and bind tomcat to public IP address.

Another solution is to configure your iptables to forward traffic from some port of your public IP to the port 8084 on your local network.
