Connect to SSRS from different computer on home network - reporting-services

I am trying to access the SSRS web portal. I have SQL Server and Report Server installed on laptop with Windows 10. I want to access this from another laptop running windows 11 that is connected to the same home internet network.
The web portal works fine when I access it from the computer running Report Server:
But when I try to access the url from another the other computer on the same network, the page just doesn't load:
I tried to follow the instructions from this site: https://askgarth.com/blog/why-cant-i-access-my-ssrs-site-remotely/
I opened port 80 TCP protocol in windows firewall to allow connections.
I think that the issue may be the profile to which the rule applies:
The instructions I tried to follow said to open up the Domain. I also tried the Private option and still no luck.
I'm nervous about opening up ports on my firewall. But how can I set this up to access the Report Server from another computer on my network?

I've just checked my setup which is basically the same...
'Server' Desktop running Windows 10 Pro: Hosts SQL Server 2019 and SSRS
'Client' Desktop running Windows 11: Accessing SSRS from here
I checked the 'server' PC and the only SQL specific ports that are open are TCP port 1433 to allow me to access the database engine via SSMS etc from the 'client' PC and TCP port 80 (both are setup to domain + private although domain should be irrelevant)
I don't normally access the SSRS portal from the 'client' but it did work in as far as it said I do not have access to any reports, but it was showing the web portal page itself just fine.
You have probably done all this but here are a few things you could try...
Check if your version of Win10 is supported. If it's Win10 home for example it may not support everything required but this is just a guess.
Ping the server from the host and make sure you get a response (assuming PING response has not been turned off)
Check server firewall allows incoming on ports TCP 80 and TCP 1433 (1433 should not be required but you can always switch this off later)
Attempt access using the server ip e.g. http://192.168.1.123/Reports
If this all fails, turn off the windows firewall and test again. You can always disconnect your router from the internet whilst you do this to be safe. If this works then you at least know it's a firewall issue.
Check if you have any 3rd party anti-virus software that might be acting as a firewall - turn off and test again.

Hot to connect to remote MySQL server when my ISP is blocking 3306?

I am developing simple application with Visual Studio that gets data from remote MySQL server through MySql.Data.dll extension. Everything works fine when I'm in my own network, but when I'm at customer site it won't work. I'm assuming their IT is blocking port 3306. Since this is a big corp with strict rules cooperation with network admin is not an option. I heard about tunneling with SSH, tried to do some research but this time this is something not supported by my remote MySQL server provider. I'm out of ideas. What are my options?
Many thanks,
Paw
You can try the command > telnet <yourDBHost> 3306 to verify if port is blocked.
In that case, if you can't request to your admin to open port, maybe you can change the port of MySQL to another open port in the firewall, using your CPanel or editing config files directly if you can access it.

MySQL:Error 2003 lost connection from a virtual machine on the same localnetwork

Apologies for the bad english, i'm french. :D
I've been looking for an answer since approximatively 4 days, and I don't know how to fix my issue.
So:
I want to virtualize two servers using virtualBox on Windows7 and i want them all on the same local network.
My VMs are running on Ubuntu 16.04
On the first VM I installed a lamp web server with MySQL 5.7 and i add phpmyadmin.
On the second VM I installed Jira standalone
--> I need to connect to my Database from my Jira server
So I used the Bridge adapter on each machine:
network configuration
network configuration
Ip adresses are attributed with the DHCP protocol.
The SQL machine ip is 192.168.6.80
The Jira machine ip is 192.168.6.101
The Host machine ip is 192.168.6.87
I'm able to ping each machine so there is no problem.
SQL server
When I start the machine everything seems to work, i can access from my SQL server:
localhost : home page of apache 2 saying "It Works"
localhost:5671 :
[���
5.7.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1� ���UKBeM�ÿ÷�ÿ����������T(DGKg1hwd=�mysql_native_password���ÿ„Got
packets out of order
localhost/phpmyadmin : the index page where I can connect perfectly with root.
Host Machine (Windows)
192.168.6.80 : home page of apache 2 saying "It Works"
192.168.6.80:5671 :
[���
5.7.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1� ���UKBeM�ÿ÷�ÿ����������T(DGKg1hwd=�mysql_native_password���ÿ„Got
packets out of order
192.168.6.80/phpmyadmin : the index page where I can connect perfectly with root.
Jira server
Here when i start the machine it works during approximatively 2-3 minutes,
I'am able to connect via:
mysql -u root -p -h 192.168.6.80 -P 5671
I am perfectly connected and i can also access to all the other adresses.
And then it stop working on this machine only.
Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.6.80.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
And when i re-try to connect via mysql on terminal I get the Error 2003 (HYOOO)
This happen only when i use the connection of my work, at home it works perfectly without stopping!!
I have few leads:
problems of proxy authentication
problems of firewall configuration
i am in a private network with a domain name called something.eu
And when i launch firefox the proxy shows up automatically:
and-etc-ha.something.eu:9090
So i'm invited to enter my id and password.
My id is : luc.myName#something.eu
After that i'm connected to internet with firefox but not in terminal when i want to use apt.
I search on the web and i found this:
export http_proxy="http://Username:password#proxyip:port/"
and
export http_proxy="http://Domain\user:pasword#proxyip:port/"
So I tried different ways and i was able to download with apt. But the internet connexion with firefox was unstable. But if I use firefox on my host machine the connexion is perfect.
I also tried with settings -> network -> network proxy -> method manual
http: and-etc-ha.something.eu port: 9090
I don't know if I was understandable, tell me!^^
If you have any ideas to help me to solve this problem let me know.
Bye!
I found the cause: In fact there was a ip conflict inside the LAN because the DHCP was giving in-use ip address.
I decide to use the NAT connection with Port Forwarding on VirtualBox.
With that configuration I'm able to access my VMs on my LAN using the host ip address followed by the port of my choice.

SQL Server 2008 Remote Access

I've studied other topics, tried various solutions, but cannot gain access to my SQL Server remotely from my PC.
I have not problems with accessing the Server its running on, I'm able to Remote Desktop fine.
Here are the steps I have taken :-
Enabled Remote access to SQL Server
Created a SQL Authentication User Account (which Ii can log in with whilst on the server).
Enabled Shared Memory & TCP/IP Protocols for the SQL Server Instance.
Created a Firewall Rule for TCP Port 1433
Created a Firewall Rule for UDP Port 1434
Created a Firewall Rule for SQLBrowwer.exe
Created a Firewall Rule for SQLservr.exe
Ensured SQL Browser & SQL Server are running processes.
SQL Management Studio cant even detect the instance of the SQL Server in listed Database Engines.
I'm at a loss as to what the problem could be?
** UPDATE **
Ive tried turning off my Firewall, the SQL Server in now found in SSMS, but i still cant connect to it?
All your steps are right, I'd do the same. I'm sure everything is fine with your SQL Server.
I guess it's firewall, try to turn it off or run this from command prompt:
netsh firewall set portopening protocol = TCP port = 1433 name = SQLPort mode = ENABLE scope = SUBNET profile = CURRENT
Also, check if you have antivirus software or something similar and turn it off (on both sides).

SQL Server mirroring connection doesnt work

I have 2 servers srv-erp1 and srv-erp3. I made them mirror on each other. All setup is done by lots of tutorials and examples.
But when I call
ALTER DATABASE MIRROR_TEST SET PARTNER = 'TCP://srv-erp3:5022'
It`s response is:
The server network address "TCP://srv-erp3:5022" can not be reached or
does not exist. Check the network address name and that the ports for
the local and remote endpoints are operational.
I go to cmd on srv-erp3 and use netstat -an... this port is listening.
I go to cmd on srv-erp1 and use telnet srv-erp3 5022...and its ok to connect.
All firewalls are turned off. The only difference in config of srvrs is that srv-erp1 is on Windows Server 2003 R2 x64, and srv-erp3 is on Windows 2008 R2 x64
What can be the reason of this problem?
Regards, Dmitry.
I have such problem, the solution was using certificates. My problem appeared because my servers were not in one domain.

Cannot connect to SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Instance on the Network

I installed an instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 Express on my 32 bit Windows 7 machine. I can see it and connect to it with SQL Server Management Studio locally but not on the network.
SQL Server Configuration Manager Settings
SQL Server Browser is running (Log on As "NT AUTHORUITY\LocalService")
Named Pipes for this instance are Enabled
TCP/IP Enabled Dynamic ports are set to nothing the TCP Ports are set to 1433
In the Server Properties from SSMS
Connections --> I have the "Allow remote connections to this server" box checked
The Firewall is turned off for testing
When I try to see this instance with a command prompt (sqlcmd -L) from another computer I get a list of network servers. Sometimes it shows up and sometimes it doesn't. If it shows up I still can't seem to connect and the error message number is 26. If feels like there is some switch somewhere that needs to be turned on.
I am leaving this up there for any other users who have mental blocks occasionally... I had not turned off all the firewalls. In windows7 you have three different firewalls and you have to turn off the right one
