To get things to work again, the user must do the following in Unity 2017.x and later:
On PC, go to Windows Defender Firewall -> Advanced Settings -> Inbound Rules
Single Select the Unity applications with the "Block" action and bring up their context menu.
Select Properties, click on the General tab, go to Action, and select "Allow the connection". Click OK.
Also make sure the Unity applications are allowed under the "Allow an app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall" option.
