I guess so.

Things I'd try:

- Start svnserve manually instead of as service.
- Make sure the service is running, e.g. look in the processes list. This will
be trickier when it is started on demand by a superserver similar to e.g.
inetd.
- Run the client on the same machine as the server, but still use svn:// and
not file://. There are several variants, using 127.0.0.1, localhost, the IP
address and the hostname.
- Use telnet instead of svn to connect. You should see something like
  ( success ( 1 2 ( ANONYMOUS ) ( edit-pipeline ) ) )

At some point you should get it running at least locally via the network. Once
that works, you can then go on to connecting from a different host.

FYI: you can still hard-wire hostnames to IP addresses, take a look at
the 'hosts' or 'hosts.txt' file in Windows' system folder. Other than that,
the syntax you used (svn://192.168.1.102/..) for the URL works here.

good luck
