Still Need help

I am still looking for some help on my issues with logging onto to my home
computer from my office. Below are my responses to questions on an earlier
post.

Administrative level user (or at least in the Remote Desktop users
group)? Yes
- What is your username? Does it contain spaces/special characters? Username = Jason Meyer, and I am the computer administrator
- Are you sure caps-lock/num-lock is not on? (Can be problematic with
laptops especially.) Yes I am sure the caps lock is not on, I have tried it from both a laptop and desktop and am getting the same problem.
- Have you tried another user? yes I set up another user with administrative privelages and a password and I get the same error that it can not log me on and that I need to check the username and/or domain and ensure that I am using the correct password and the caps are not on. I checked all of those things.
- The password is something other than blank, right? Correct

Create a whole new user with a decent password and make sure they are a
member of the "Remote Desktop" users group. Try that user. I did it and it did not work either.

Something else interesting happened this morning, while I was testing this
all last night I was using two different computers in my house and while it
pulled the IP Address I got the cant log on message. When I got to work this
morning I decided to try it from my work computer and got a message that says
"the client could not connect to the remote computer. Remote connection
might be enabled or the computer might be too busy to accept new
connections... etc..."

I called home and ensured my computer was turned on and no one was using it.
Ironically enough I have also set this up in the other direction so that I
can log onto my work computer from home and have no problems, I just cant
seem to log on to my computer at home, from either my work computer or
another computer on my home network, it's very frustrating.

Please stay in the same thread and be patient.
