iPad to PC local network

Question

When I try to connect my iPad to a PC on a local network (No Internet),  I can type in the IP address of the PC but the Connect button is greyed out.

I have set up TeamViewer Incoming Lan connections to accept exclusively on the PC.

TeamViewer 15.64.8

The PC is set to accept exclusively for Incoming LAN connections.

The iPad and PC are on the same local network(no internet connection)

I don't know how to check to see if the iPad supports LAN connections.

I have attached three screen shots from the iPad.

On the iPad side, make sure the connection itself is created as a LAN connection, not a regular TeamViewer ID connection. When you add the PC by its IP address in the TeamViewer app on the iPad, look for the LAN option when setting up the device entry. Both devices also need to be on the same subnet, and since the PC is set to 'accept exclusively', only LAN-mode connections will be accepted — so the iPad must also connect via LAN. Worth double-checking that the iPad's TeamViewer app version supports LAN connections, since this differs a bit between the desktop and mobile clients.
