Will try to resolve the problem without going back to a 'public' network lan.
You might want to try setting the private profile to allow inbound connections. You can do this by opening Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security, clicking on properties and setting inbound connections to allowed. I do have a firewall box so I use that instead of a software firewall—I won't mention my opinion of the firewall supplied by my wireless modem/router other than blechh. Due to Microsoft's insistence on turning that setting back off, I ended up setting up the local Group Policy to enforce the setting.
