    It works for me after maybe 12 hours of trial and error over a 3-day period.

    Remote host name: Enter your IP address as is. (do ipconfig and find IPv4 Address)
    Port Number: 445 (I only knew this from one of the other websites. I figured it should have been the listening port for my IP, but nope)
    Path: Blank
    Display Name: Computer Name (shown as name when doing nslookup on your IP address)
    Username and password authentication selected
    Username as shown in the path in CMD after the /
    Password was tricky, because it's not my Windows password which uses a 4-digit pin. It also is not my gmail address associated with the account. It was a third password that I often use elsewhere; I may have gotten lucky on this try. One thing to note is that I did use this password to create my LAN (different from my wifi password, so maybe that's what it used???)
    SMB2 selected
