Select the IP address

Detect, enable, and disable SMBv1, SMBv2, and SMBv3 in Windows
See various ways to detect, enable, and disable the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol (SMBv1, SMBv2, and SMBv3) in Windows client and server environments.learn.microsoft.com
Enable it (if needed) and restart your pc

Yes. That's it. Disable (for 5 minutes or so) your windows anti-virus/firewall . Maybe a reboot to all your devices is a good idea.Assuming you mean this Rui, already done that

of course, VPN has conflict with your LANThanks Rui but had already done that as well.
But good news . I have two VPN clients ( wireguard) running on my router and I disabled them both and then was able to make a connection.
I have reenabled them both and can still see the Minix u8k
