I've tried the following 1) Use No-IP.com because I have a dynamic IP address. Typed in name.no-ip.org. The error was the same. 2) I have gone to http://www.ChicagoTech.net for troubleshooting help (http://www.chicagotech.net/remoteissues/rdc2.htm). There suggestion was related to Norton and MacAfee which I don't have installed. 3) I went to http://www.HowToNetworking.com. This website did not have a solution to the problem. Basically try connecting at a later time or contact the server admin. 4) Port forwarded 3389 to the server IP address - No luck. This might give you a hint. I went into the security log of the router and it stated that the "RoS connection" was refused. Any feedback would be appreciated.

comes down to either an addressing error, a port forwarding issue or your ISP is blocking the incoming RDP traffic which is unlikely. On the PC you want to remotely control what happens if you go to the http://www.canyouseeme.org site and run the test on TCP Port 3389? There is logging help on this page... http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/RemoteDesktop/RemoteDesktopSetupandTroubleshooting.html#Logging What kind of broadband ISP do you use, ie. cable or DSL?

I've gone to http://www.canyouseeme.org on the remote computer and it can see port 3389. I've also typed in netstat -a and 3389 is listening. I have DSL. Not sure if the modem is actually a router. I will look into it. As for port forwarding in my router (Belkin), I've typed in 3389 for the ports and typed in the IP address of the PC to be accessed. What is RoS connection refused mean? I went into the router security log and that's what was stated. -- Show quoteHide quotedblouie "Sooner Al [MVP]" wrote: > Well if you can connect locally from another PC over your local LAN then it > comes down to either an addressing error, a port forwarding issue or your > ISP is blocking the incoming RDP traffic which is unlikely. > > On the PC you want to remotely control what happens if you go to the > http://www.canyouseeme.org site and run the test on TCP Port 3389? > > There is logging help on this page... > > http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/RemoteDesktop/RemoteDesktopSetupandTroubleshooting.html#Logging > > What kind of broadband ISP do you use, ie. cable or DSL?

issue. Are you sure your calling the correct public IP from the remote PC? Go to http://whatismyip.com and get your public IP. Use that to call from a remote location. Note that if your ISP assigns you a dynamic IP the IP may change over the course of the day or week or month or etc... I suppose you could have some weird MTU issue. I don't use DSL so I really can't help with that... Maybe someone else can... I have absolutely no idea what that "RoS" error means.

I am having exactly the same issue, but with Cable. I have a Belkin Wireless router that I have set up to forward port 3389 to the IP address I desire. I also run Checkpoint Firewall, and have set that up to allow access on port 3389 in all areas. I can see port 3389 on www.canyouseeme.org . Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If so, assign it a permanent address such as: 192.168.0.5 Also make sure that when you open your port 3389 on the router, it is checked and applied to the IP address of your local computer. Also, may want to check windows firewall and make sure that it isn't blocking the 3389 port. When you are outside of your lan you will type in the IP address from your ISP plus the port, so it would look something like 24.87.25.99:3389, and on the lan 192.168.0.5:3389. I also use NO-IP and it works great. Hope this helps. Show quoteHide quote > > >>> > > > > > > > > > > > > Al wrote:

If so, assign it a permanent address such as: 192.168.0.5 Also make sure that when you open your port 3389 on the router, it is checked and applied to the IP address of your local computer. Also, may want to check windows firewall and make sure that it isn't blocking the 3389 port. When you are outside of your lan you will type in the IP address from your ISP plus the port, so it would look something like 24.87.25.99:3389, and on the lan 192.168.0.5:3389. I also use NO-IP and it works great. Hope this helps. -Andrew You could have some problem with the client you are using. Can that client
access other remote hosts? Can other clients access from the Internet the host you cannot access?
