Warpinator on two identical Linux Mint Cinnamon 21.1 ain't connecting #155

I am trying to establish a connection on my Home LAN between two LMC 21.1 desktops. My single router settings identify and display both computer names matching the unique names and IP addresses. Both desktops display each other's name correctly in the Network tab, while at the same time both say that no other computer is found. Both recognize their own shared folders as "Warpinator" and I placed some files in one desktop, and both have "ineuw" as admin.

Have you worked through the troubleshooting steps here? https://github.com/linuxmint/warpinator#solving-connection-issues

Please attach a debug log for Warpinator (steps at the end of the troubleshooting section), for each machine.

Apologies for the delay. The attached images display my repeatable errors. IP is OK, the SMART/RG cable router shows the connections as well. The LAN IP is also correctly displayed.

I will post the debug log in a few minutes.

My network experience is limited to Windows home network, and never needed and configured gufw, although it was always installed along with
