It's usually one of these

 1. The SSDP Discovery Service has been disabled on the client.

 2. A firewall is blocking traffic between the client and host.

 3. The "Internet Gateway Discovery & Control Client" has been unchecked in
network optional components.

 4. The SSDP Discovery Service or the UPNP Device Host service has been
disabled on the host.
