Help with J Gecko U

[Cxddles]

I believe I followed the setup-guide correctly and had every file I needed on my SD Card and laptop. My laptop and Wii U were connected to the same WiFi and yet when I type my Wii U's IP address in the tab Wii U IP Address and click connect I get the following error messages. Any help on fixing this is highly appreciated and will make sure I won't make the same mistake again in the future.

The one on my laptop

Check your firewall

• JGecko U does not connect successfully despite following all steps correctly:
  Usually, your (Windows) Firewall will ask you for permission to allow java.exe to access the network the first time you're trying to use the network with a Java application like JGecko U. Obviously, you need to give this permission (and specify you're inside a private network). Note: If no such pop-up comes up, you may need to manually add a firewall rule to allow java.exe to access the network. This is something that prevented some users from connecting JGecko U successfully. After adding the firewall rule, the connection should work fine.

Thanks for the quick response! About this; I have to check for Java (TM) Platform SE binary, right?
Do I have to checkmark all to private or public or both?

Check your firewall setting to see if the firewall is blocking inbound/outbound traffic.

Advance settings tab -> Inbound traffic

Advance settings tab -> Inbound traffic

So I allowed all of those, but I still get the same error message.

I also enabled all of those (private and public). What am I doing wrong?
