First step is also allowing remote desktop on your other computers: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-allow-access
What security software is locally installed? That can also block ICMP. So it can be necessary that you need to open port 3389 (remote desktop) and ICMP in your local firewall. Did you change the firewall settings on your router?
