Remote desktop problems

[Jason Henley]

This is doing my head in!!

OK...

At home via wireless (lan) I can connect via remote desktop to my pc no
problem

On a Wan via the internet all I get is the Linksys Setup page for my router.

I have forwarded ports 3389 (TCP) and 4908 (UDP) to my ip address no my pc
to no joy.
The ports are opened up on Windows Firewall.

It is a static IP address through my cable modem which is connected to the
router and then to my pc

HELP

Thanks

Are you using the correct public IP of the router when you call using Remote Desktop from a remote
location?

I forgot to mention that UDP Port 4908 is not needed...

If you are trying to use a tsweb connection, you must open port 80 as well.
Tsweb uses both http and RDP.
