I have Win XP Pro on a couple computers at my office. At this point with the
router I have right now it will only allow my to connect via Remote Desktop to only one of the computers. I have different ports configured for each computer but I for some reason can only connect over port 3390 via Remote Desktop. I have an Asante FR3000C Router and they said that this router is unable to make this work. I want to allow more of my help to access their computer away from the office but I am having issues. Can anyone help? |

Not met this router, but first thought is whether the firewalls on the
computers have been set to allow inbound connections via whichever two port you opened. As it's not the usual port it won't happen automatically. Or, if the router cannot redirect ports to various machines, redirect all the ports to one machine and run a portmapper on it. A portmapper is available from http://www.analogx.com -disadvantage is that the portmapper machine has to be left on. Other suggestion I could make is to try VNC. Various versions are available, and all are much easier to setup than RD, albeit slower. I use TightVNC, though some prefer UltraVNC. VNC uses a single port in the 59xx range. Whatever you do, look to security. Ideally, all teleworkers should use a fixed IP address, so you can set rules to disallow foreign connections. |
