Could have been. May never know, as it all looked "normal" after I rebooted things.

Sounds like guest network isolation

    I eventually found the problem was our Unifi AP. Not sure how it
    was doing this, as we did not have it firewalled or anything
    beyond just being an AP. It's possible that it was malfunctioning
    because of some recent power outages.

    When I started having other (non NBT) issues with other devices I
    restarted the Unifi controller and the AP, and suddenly all the
    things that had not been working started working.

    I had been concentrating on my partner's Windows PC, but it was
    not that at all. Problem was that it was the only device that we
    needed to have NBT working inside our network. As it happens, it
    wasn't just NBT, but anything intranet. Strangely, anything
    internet was working fine. I don't get it, but I'm glad it's gone.

    Change WiFi to Private and you should be good to go..

        I've never seen this before, so I thought mining the
        resident mind trust might shake something loose.

        My partner's Windows 10 laptop has both an ethernet LAN
        adapter and a WiFi adapter. Both adapters work just fine
        going to the wild woolly internet. No problem.

        However, when doing any NBT-type interactions, only the
        ethernet LAN adapter allows her to browse local shares. The
        WiFi adapter can't see any NetBIOS objects.

        If you open the Windows Explorer, it's like a light switch.
        If the ethernet LAN adapter has the cable installed, all the
        local  NetBIOS shares (PCs, printers, NAS devices) are
        visible. If you unplug the ethernet cable, everything
        disappears. However, if you want to access the interwebs,
        both adapters work as advertised.

        I have no clue what would cause this.
