Hi
For some reasons, I'm not able to get Remote Assistance to work between my
Vista Home Premium PC and a remote Vista Home Premium PC.
I'm using Windows Live Messenger and click on File | Actions | Offer Remote
Assistance. The remote PC accepts the offer and issues a 6-character
password. My PC then pops up a window asking for the password; I type in
the password, and a bigger window opens - trying to connect. After about 30
seconds, it says: "Remote Assistance cannot make the connection"
I tried tweaking the router at the remote PC to set up port forwarding for
3389 (as I understand that is the requirement). I checked and
double-checked, but it wouldn't work.
Please let me know what else I can do.
Thanks
Steve
