Issue with connecting to the other Windows machines

Hi,
I have followed your tutorial on youtube and I have created the sender and receiver files. The test on the local machine is working fine with the private IPv4 number. Sadly I can not get it to work on another Windows machine in the same network. I am getting the following error:
receiver = StreamingServer('192.168.0.39', 5123)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
OSError: [WinError 10049] The requested address is not valid in this context
On the local machine, I used the same IP address for the sender and the receiver and it worked. When connecting to the other machine, I used the local IP as well as the public IP address from the sender machine in the receiver script with the same result.
How can I fix this issue?
It seems like you tried to use private IP Address which is not assigned to that computer.
Ensure all computers are in the same Local Area Network inorder to use private IP Address.
