Hello all! I am hoping to get some advice on how to move forward.
Issue: Cannot connect to 3/4 machines that I want to monitor.
Setup:
Fios Gateway (wifi turned OFF) > Nest Router providing wifi > PC 3, PC 4 on wifi
Nest Router > multi-port switch > ethernet cord 1 > multi-port switch > PC 1 (mine), PC 2
Fios Gateway (same as above) > ethernet port > PC 5
I am unable to connect to PCs 3 4 and 5 from my PC 1, but i can connect to PC 2 using the remote access feature. I’m sure this is due to some port forwarding issue but I would love some additional guidance:
- Should I set it up as TCP or UDP or Both?
- Should I set up static IP addresses?
- Any other things I can try?
I’ve tried the first two several times to no avail but I will admit i am exhausted and might not be thinking clearly. I am tech savvy enough to be dangerous, so feel free to tell me to do whatever.
Thanks in advance.
