Yes, a firewall is a common culprit. Check your operating system's firewall settings (Windows Firewall, macOS Firewall, or Linux's `ufw` or `firewalld`). Ensure that port 10061 is open for both inbound and outbound connections. Temporarily disabling the firewall (for testing purposes only!) can help confirm if it's the issue.
