Hi All,

I am unable to reach the Gateway Home Page from another computer in the same network and I can’t figure out why ☹ .  
The Gateway I’m trying to connect to has the following IP address 192.168.250.2, I’m in the same class ( 192.168.250.177) and I can ping it.  
The option “Allows this Gateway to be discoverable on your local network” is set to TRUE.  
Windows Defender is disabled so I don’t think is an Anti-Virus issue.  
Windows Network Sharing Options are all set to “Turn On”.

Any thoughts?

are you using port 8088?  
`192.168.250.2:8088`

What about Windows Firewall? Your symptoms are classic firewall behavior.

Yes! It was due to Window Firewall 😡  
Thank you for the suggestion 😊  
I’ll make a new Inbound Rule 😉
