Hi,

My Asus is acting up (can't connect for some reason) and so I tried my TP Link which works.
Problem is I remote desktop to my server and for some reason I can't figure out the Port Forwarding on this damn thing. Apparently Port 3389 is blocked by default but can't seen to get it Un-blocked :(
Latest firmware and all but still nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
Under forwarding it says that ports used by remote management or CW will not work. I think this is for virtual servers.

Maybe try port triggering or DMZ?
Only guessing.

Strange thing is one of the PCs have remote management but the others refuse to work.
Let me try Port Triggering. Could you post where you found that tid-bit of info. :)

The message came up at the top on my Linux laptop, but I can't find it on my Windows pc.
Weird.

The pc that can connect remotely, is port 3389 linked to that IP address in Port Forwarding?
That is probably the reason why the other pc can't?

Edit:
Maybe this is related?

Nope. Port wasn't mapped at all. :confused:
Using my old telkom for the interim. Will try figure this out in the morning.

:( No gigabit speeds.
