Can't find local PC over ethernet, only over Wi-Fi (all on the same network)

Hi!
I've gone through all the steps for troubleshooting however, I am still not able to connect to my Win 11 desktop PC via ethernet through Moonlight. Adding my IP manually also does not find it.
Been trying to setup Moonlight streaming from my Steam Deck to my Windows desktop PC (tried using Sunshine and GFE). However, my desktop PC refuses to show up in Moonlight no matter what I try. I've tried all suggested steps on Github as well as ton I found on Google and Reddit. Manually entering my IP also does nothing. I've reinstalled all apps and rebooted hardware numerous times. I've run the Internet hosting tool and it ran successful. All ports have been added to my routers port forwarding.
After giving up I installed Moonlight on my Android phone for fun just to see what would happen. To my surprise it located my PC over WiFi instantly. So then I connected my PC to WiFi instead of ethernet and then my Steam Deck displayed my local PC right away. Would anyone know why it's not finding my PC over a direct Ethernet connection on the same network? Even disabling my firewall didn't make a difference.
Someone suggested it could be a "network misconfiguration" though I'm not exactly sure what that could entail. Any suggestions on what might be able to resolve this?
