WIn 2012 Essentials not allowing client connections

hi everyone,

i stuck here i've followed many tn articles , none of them seem solve what's happening me.

i opened 2 brand new comps both win 7 pro , can't connect either let alone other machines win 2012 essentials server.

connected i'm under 25 limit at

7 pc's (6 win 7 pro 64bit, 1 win 8 pro)

the 2 new ones identical models 2 machines on server updates , patches applied win 7.

i've tried ip , host name connect software going. goes stuck @ username/password screen once enter user account info or one's account "the server not available. try connecting computer again, or more information, see troubleshoot connecting computers server"

now noticed other day had alert on server , ran best practices said dns issue fixed directed alert went away.

also disabled other unused network adapter on server, , heck of disabled ipv6 on 1 of new machines in hopes that's not either.

here few of tn articles i've looked @ none of them helped me solve particular problem.
