Acess Devian 9 laptop by another devica via wifi

I travel often with a hefty laptop running Debian 9 and like to do casual
programming on it remotely via a terminal app (Termius) on an iPad. In many
situations I am able to access the laptop when on a wireless LAN by getting
its IP address with "sudo ifconfig" and simply using that address in
Termius to ssh in to the laptop.

However, someteimes that does not work until I edit the wireless connection
and declare it public. And in still other cases I cannot access the laptop
at all.

Is there any reliable way to either (1) always connect via the LAN or (2)
make the laptop broadcast its own LAN so I can login to it wirelessly from
the iPad?

Thanks.

With warmest regards,

-Tom
