Must PowerShell Remoting be enabled? Is port 1433 involved?

Found out that Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned resolved the problem.
I try to get backup from SQL databases with this PowerShell code:
Set-Location "SQLSERVER:\SQL\computer\distance\Databases"
foreach ($database in (Get-ChildItem)) {
$dbName = $database.Name
Backup-SqlDatabase -Database $dbName -BackupFile "E:\bu\$dbName"
}
In a virtual server it works.
When I go to SQLSERVER:\SQL\computer\distance\Databases location and take ls
it show my databases and sucessfully takes backups.
But in another server in my workplace it gives this error:
Get-ChildItem : SQL Server PowerShell provider error: Failed to read child items.
[Failed to connect to server computer\instance. --> Login failed for user
'work\sql'.]
At line:1 char:23

and when in SQLSERVER:\SQL\computer\distance\Databases directory I do ls it gives this error:

computer\instance: I changed for this example.
I am trying to test the following script in powershell which gets the status of the mirrored databases.
#SQL Variables
$sqlservers = "APNSQL01"
#SQL database mirroring status
$body +=echo "------------Originating Server-----------"`r`n""`r`n""
Import-Module "sqlps" -DisableNameChecking
$body +=echo "--------Status of mirrored databases---------"`r`n""`r`n""
foreach ($server in $sqlservers){
$body +=echo "Database mirroring state on $server
"
$body += Invoke-Sqlcmd -Query "USE master
SELECT sys.database_mirroring.mirroring_state_desc
,sys.databases.name
FROM sys.database_mirroring INNER JOIN sys.databases ON sys.database_mirroring.database_id=sys.databases.database_id
WHERE mirroring_state_desc IS NOT NULL" -ServerInstance "$server" | out-string
}
When I run this code, I get the following error :
Invoke-Sqlcmd : A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.
The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is

My SQL server is a STANDARD database. It has no mirror. Is that the issue?
What might the error be?
I have been trying unsuccessfully to restore a database to a new database but keep getting errors saying that the existing files cannot be overwritten. How do I specify a new database and files?
Update: The command I am using is below. TestDB_2.0 does not exist yet, I am wanting it to be created from the backup file.
Restore-SqlDatabase -ServerInstance SERVER-NAME\MSSQL2014 -Database TestDB_2.0 -BackupFile D:\TestWebsite\TestDeployments\testdb.bak -SqlCredential [sa, $pw]
The error I get is:
