Two disc PCs on same router can't play multiplayer

By reading through the posts I see I'm not the only one having problems playing in multiplayer. I have a pc and a laptop on a home network that both run off discs. Both can create games in multiplayer mode, but when you try and join the game from the other computer, it is not visible in the list. Here is what I've done: port forwarded the pc to 10823 and port forwarded the laptop to 10824 and changed the port settings to the above mentioned when starting multiplayer. I've also signed up for a steam account for each machine, installed it and tried in both online and offline mode (first of all, I'm not even sure if you need a steam account and install to play multiplayer). I only run 2 mods and they were from mod hub and they are on both machines, and all the settings appear to be the same. I'm running windows 8 on the laptop and windows 10 on the pc.
Frankly I'm at a loss, when I played FS15 this worked just fine with two other folks and without any port configuration. Any suggestions?
