Windows 10: Your Phone Companion issues

I used to use the Your Phone app to connect my Android phone to my PC and I had no issues. I think this was on build 1803 of Windows 10.
I am now running build 1909 and want to connect my new phone to the PC. My PC has always been on a wired connection, connected directly to my router. The phone connects to the wireless network on my router.
I have the Your Phone Companion installed on the PC and the phone with no problems. The phone appears to connect OK. It goes through the Check your PC stage and then says to select Send notification to give final permission, but on the PC I just have the screen attached and it does nothing else. Does the PC need to be connected wirelessly these days? or am I missing something else.
