Master Power Query with our book - M is for Data Monkey

[Ken Puls]

A couple of thoughts on this:

• Do I need to install special software on my laptop, e.g SQL server?

No, that shouldn't be necessary at all.

Any chance you're behind a corporate firewall? That's usually the number one blocker of these things. Try it from a home network?

Thanks Ken.

I'm on a home network, with a McAfee security package providing firewall protection

I am on a home network with McAfee and don't have these issues - I would think that something else is at play here. Do you have extra firewall settings on your router?

Hi Ali,

I'm going to try this from a different computer today/tomorrow and will see what happens. Will let you know
