windows firewall isn't off when you think it is. make sure its disabled in services as well.
if you also have updates switched off, this also isn't off.
try this simple test. set the time in updates too a time more than 2hrs away. the put your pc/laptop in sleep mode. if you have wake-up on lan switched on in your BIOS. by some microsoft miracle the pc/laptop will wake-up.
odd when you have updates switched off.
