Is your cousin's computer in the same network, using the same router and it works out? Just to double check that the issue is definitely not there.

The Windows firewall shouldn't be the issue, Wallpaper Engine can actually check it and warn you about it relatively reliably (unless this kind of feature is blocked by an anti-virus or something).

If the issue is not your router for sure, do you have any other thirdparty security software installed? If you're not sure you can send this log to us: https://help.wallpaperengine.io/debug/scantool.html

The connection is probably getting blocked by the ESET firewall software you have installed. You need to either configure or remove it. We cannot provide support for third-party firewalls since there are so many and we do not know them all by heart, but usually there are easy to find guides online on how to exclude apps from these firewalls.
