Hi its not normal, coz other users don't have these kinds of things happening. It may be a firewall on your desktop, wifi or even your phone.

Also you need to have an access to private networks if you are on Windows.

Cheers

This was the problem. Being the bonehead that I am, my home network profile was accidentally set to Public network, rather than private.
