[Cialug] Question on configuring inbound RDP through QwestActiontec PK5000

[albus]

I've done this but I use port forward. Also make sure your OS has remote
access turned on.

At a command prompt type netstat -a and look for port 3389 in the list. If
it isn't there it won't work.

 

Another thing make sure you version of windows has rdp. Some do some don't.
Like Home version
don't. Pro versions do. Why I don't know, another Microsoftism.

Subject: [Cialug] Question on configuring inbound RDP through QwestActiontec
PK5000

 

I am trying to configure inbound RDP through a Qwest Actiontec PK5000 DSL
modem/router and it just isn't working.

 

I am using the same type of application forwarding that I am using for
allowing inbound SMTP to the mail server.   I am just using port 3389
instead and it just doesn't seem to work.   I tried two different computers
on the LAN.  Verified that RDP works on the computer on the LAN side.

 

Is there any filtering by Qwest?  For something this straight forward to
configure, it is really weird that it just isn't working.   Going to be
breaking out wireshark next.
