I’m going to move the system into my living room.
Hopefully fingers crossed that works. As I said I’ve set up a few servers so pretty much know any problem going but this stumped me.

I’ve generally avoided a remote SQL terminal over wifi, generally use either wired or RDP/teamviewer to a wired machine.
Na, I get you but its for multi terminal.
Ive literally tried everything here it doing my nut in. Last one I built just ‘worked’! grr
edit
Ok Ive just hard wired the server so ill try now.
Make sure computers/terminals have WIFI connection set to Private and not Public.
Wired is automatically Private.
Its bizarre, I can see the servers files on my laptop but it wont connect to the sql server.
I feel ive exhausted all options… theres going to be a small thing ive missed I know it
ive gone through this twice
Ive aloso gone through the multi terminal tutorial about 4 times to make sure I didn’t miss anything…
My router is a standard SKY router.
If you haven’t already, look at this post as well…
NO I didn’t see that one, but I’m going to go through it now.
I actually have the firewall turned off at the moment, but ill tun back on and add these ports
The pipes is always what I forget.
Yeah did them first…
It’s proper bizarre. Might uninstall sql and reinstall again… Might have done something wrong
Generally you would expect some sort of connectivity if setup corectly.
WAPs would generally not have any form of routing/firwall being lan based and file sharing etc would suggest network structure is ok.
Obviously that doesnt mean SQL is a set thing but suggests network is ok…
Guessing you cant connect via MSSQLM from laptop?
Never tried actually… I’ll do that tomorrow. Laid up in bed at the moment don’t think the wife will be happy if I pull my laptop out lol
Do you install samba using default settings? 'cause last time i had a similar problem was that installed samba on terminal wirh local db causing the issue that wont connect the server
Good point, however my connection string is set to the terminal rather than localhost.
Are you sure your connection is PRIVATE?
Connections definitely private… wow this is highly annoying lol
I spent best part of all day on it yesterday
In the pipes the ports wernt set, so I set them as 1433 as outlined in an online tutorial, restarted server and still nope…
I absolutely have no idea, ive literally exhausted everything.
I’m connected to a homegroup, all connections are private, all tutorial and troubleshooting options triple checked.
I’m thinking of just deleting the lot and starting again, but I haven’t done anything major to warrant that
edit:
the error I’m getting is this:
(provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 28 - Server doesn’t support requested protocol)
ive disabled Named Pipes as detailed here
http://www.neurosolutions.com/infinity/help/index.html?HowtofixSQLNetworkInterfaceserro.html
I am now awaiting a reboot
still no go, SSMS doesn’t connect remotely either
my laptop I’m using sql server 2014 and the server is using 2016, but that shouldn’t make a difference?
Uninstalled all instances, started from scratch.
Still nothing, I really am at a loss here

I can ping it
Is SQL server agent running? It would be a service.
Yes cos the terminal is running on it and it shows as running in services
