Can't Connect to other network machines

Hello Don,
I understand the inconvenience caused, let's work together to fix this issue. I request you to change AVG Firewall network profile to private (open AVG Internet Security > menu > settings > components > firewall > customize > network profile > change all the network public to private), please go to Firewall customize settings again > scroll down > click on system rules > enable all the system rules if it's not configured, please click OK and check if you can connect to other machine on network with enabled AVG Internet Security.
Best regards,
Alok.
