Describe the issue

Hi, I was using my late model MacBook Air as a remote to connect to my late-2015 iMac where my Roon server lies. I've never had any difficulties doing so in the past, until recently. The Roon application on the Air see's the iMac, but just remains, "Connecting..." without ever connecting. I have no firewall up. All operating systems and Roon software is updated. I tried reinstalling the Roon application on my Air, but no luck. I have no trouble connecting to the server with my iOS devices, so I'm assuming there's some issue with my Air. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Describe your network setup

Wireless (robust)

Did you update to macOS 15 Sequoia?
