If you are on Windows. Go to the computer with wallet and open the command window and type ipconfig then look for your IPv4 Address. Make sure you use that ip address in your bat on the non wallet computer.
Example. If wallet computer ipv4 address is 192.192.1.921 your bat should look something like this: spreadminer -o
http://192.192.1.921:41667 -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
I also use rpcport=41667 in my config file. If you change anything in your confige file you must restart the wallet.
NOTE: I am a rookie compared to tsiv but this is how I solo mine from multiple computers to the main with the wallet. I have other steps that I must do but they are not the most secure way that I have read about how I do it but it works fine for me. Been mining at time a total of 3 computers into the one with the wallet.
Running JSON RPC over internet is insecure. It allows any intermediate node to intercept your communications (including your RPC password). This is especially dangerous if you are mining on unlocked wallet because it would allow to steal your coins.
This article describes how to use secure RPC connections:

Thanks for the link. I'll try and make sence of that.
I know I am running very insecure that is why i put that Note in there for him to read.
But curious question if you can answer, kinda off topic, Wouldn't my router block all incoming traffic? I have all my wallets running on wireless rigs. I am not concerned about my IP provider or even the NSA,if the NSA wnats something from me I am pretty sure they can get it with my limited knowledge in computer programming and all.
Thanks
