Connection timeout to server on local network from a different device

I've been trying to get a server setup and tested before whitelisting it and port forwarding over the router via connection tests from a computer on the same network but the connection gets timed out every single time. The device the server is hosted on can connect just fine though.

I tried multiple methods: entering in the local ip address of the server's device to the server-ip entry in the properties file, switching out the router for a switch because I was worried about double nat issues regarding the fact that both devices were connected on a secondary router that was connected to the ISP router... going through setting up a firewall even though it was disabled prior on the server's device and port forwarding the 25565 port. I even tried the method I first mentioned here again and it still didn't work so I'm really wondering what is going wrong.

For reference, both devices are PC, running on the same operating system (Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon).
