This is because your MQTT is isolated to localhost only. Local host in this case would be your weewx server, which you must have installed MQTT on as well. Which works for weewx ==> MQTT since they are on the same system, but nothing else
First, change your MQTT to listen on 1883 for external connections. Since you're not using SSL, you can remove the 8883, update your myconfig.conf with this. listener 1883 protocol mqtt With this change it'll open port 1883 to external connections like your laptop. You can leave your weewx.conf [[MQTT]] config alone since they are on the same machine, localhost will work here like it already is. I don't see your skin options so I think you haven't done that. You're posting to MQTT with [[MQTT]], but now you need to retrieve - that's what the skin does. In weewx.conf you need to specify the Belchertown skin options for MQTT such as enabling it, hostname, topic, etc. <https://github.com/poblabs/weewx-belchertown#mqtt-for-real-time-streaming-options> You cannot use localhost here for mqtt_host, you need to specify the IP of the server hosting your MQTT. By saying 127.0.0.1 or localhost that means Chrome is going to try to connect to YOUR PC for MQTT data which probably doesn't exist. You need to specify the IP of the MQTT broker, like 192.168.1.100 or whatever. This is where having a static IP or a DHCP reservation is important so the IP of your internal broker doesn't change.
