Remote Desktop Connection works via WiFi, but not via ethernet
I have a desktop and a laptop.
The desktop is connected to the internet using an ethernet cable.
When the laptop is connected using WiFi, I am able to make an RDC connection to it from my desktop.
When the laptop is connected using an ethernet cable, I am NOT able to make an RDC connection to it from my desktop. It gives the following error:
"Remote Desktop can’t connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:
1) Remote access to the server is not enabled
2) The remote computer is turned off
3) The remote computer is not available on the network
Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled."
I know the laptop is on the network because it appears under my network list in Windows Explorer, on my desktop and on my laptop.
What can I do to make an RDC connection to the laptop when it's connected via ethernet?
