It's probably not a software issue on the workstation or server, 99% chance it's a networking issue. If you're hitting it via WAN IP of the router, try LAN IP of the machine, or vice-verse. (and setup it's MAC as a static IP in DHCP config, if that's an option)

A lot of home router's IP Tables are not setup to allow internal machines to access other machines on the LAN, through the WAN IP. There are also some that completely isolate LAP IPs from each other.

Make sure you can at least ping your brother's machine either through LAN IP or WAN IP.
