[X4U] Can't connect to other computers

[Allan Rube ¹]

I am confused then. How can I connect to the PC? I looked at system
preferences file sharing. Under services I have personal ad printer sharing
on. I shut the firewall off to see if that helped - no. I have internet
sharing off - then on (built in Ethernet) but it makes no difference.
