I can ping all devices on my network except my laptop. I can ping from laptop to other machines. The laptop has internet access and I can remote desktop into it but it will not ping. any suggestions that I could try?

Did you pick public network when you joined with the laptop? The options have a couple of different firewall behavior rules, usually the public one drops other connectivity like ICMP or RDP unless you manually whitelisted it in that zone.

The firewall settings look the same as the other computers.

What would be preventing me from pinging a pc that's on my network. I don't understand what would be blocking it. I turned the firewall off and still can't ping it.
