If it works on a LAN then (unless it is using UDP broadcasting/multicasting) the software is fine, you just need to host it on an Internet-accessible server and set up the firewall appropriately.

1. take computer 2. plug in cable to router 3. ???? 4. profit (Part 3 also includes setting up port forwarding, and your ISP agreement needs to include a fixed domain name or (ideally) IP.) You can also use a hosting service or a cloud service like Amazon's that will give you public IPs. If you don't know about this, you probably shouldn't be trying to create Internet applications, because it's odds on that you will make dumb security mistakes as well.
