I have the server and watcher on the desktop Windows 10 machine and, separately, the server on the Vortexbox. (The watcher on the Windows machine controls the server on the Vortexbox.)

Thanks for the clarification. If UPnP discovery is working correctly, your UPnP control point(s) should see both these MinimServer instances all the time. If the desktop instance is popping up later than the Vortexbox instance, you have a problem with UPnP discovery. How are these two machines connected to your network?
