No response from external agent

Hi,

I'm trying to deploy the agent to a users home laptop.

I added their laptop to PDQ Inventory by name. Then exported the agent manual install xml file. Copied it along witht eh agent installer exe to theri PC and ran the install.

But I'm not seeing the agetn check in. If I set off a scan I just get "Sending Wake", when that times out it says "offline settings"

I'm running Inventory 16.5 & deploy 17 I've restarted the services for both on the server which i running in server central mode.

Is there anything I've missed or are there any logs I can check on both the serer or client to track what's happening?

Thanks,
