Welcome.  This might help:

Are you connecting from the same LAN?

I edited your access key above.

All devices (iPad and MacBook Pro etc) are connected to the same WiFi.

There is no firewall - just the WiFi router.

I am not a tech guy, clearly dumbed down by Apple products “just working on plugin”, so the website instructions don’t help me.

Is the error message at all helpful to understand what is wrong?

Thanks
