Remote Desktop through VPN ?
« on: September 05, 2009, 10:16:32 AM »

Hello,

I've a Dlink VPN Router DI-804HV (http://www.dlink.ca/products/?pid=DI-804HV).

I've established a PPTP VPN connexion from my computer (Windows XP Pro SP3) at home, to my  DI-804HV Router at my office.
This VPN connexion works fine.
I can ping my office computer, but I can't do a remote desktop on my office computer!
Do you know how can I solve this problem?

At home, I've a High Speed Internet connexion (ADSL), the IP adresse of my computer is
IP Address: 192.168.2.15
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1
DHCP Server: 192.168.2.1
DNS Server: 192.168.2.1

At the office, I've a High Speed Internet connexion (ADSL) with a static IP address, the Router is plugged on the ADSL Modem.

The Router WAN Settings are:
IP Address: (Static IP Address)
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
ISP Gateway Address: (ISP Gateway)
Primary DNS Address: (ISP DNS 1)
Secondary DNS Address: (ISP DNS 2)

The Router LAN Settings are:
IP Address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

There already have a default Firewall rule about the Ping:
Action Name   Source   Destination   Protocol   
Allow Ping WAN portWAN,*WAN,*ICMP,*

I've created a Firewall rule about the RDP:
Action Name   Source   Destination   Protocol   
Allow RDPWAN,*LAN,*TCP,3389

At the office, the Network settings of my computer are:
IP Address: 192.168.1.5
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.254
DHCP Server:
DNS Server: 192.168.1.254

The Remote Desktop is activated/allowed on my office computer (Windows XP Pro SP3), but I can't use it!
Could you help me please?

You can check this emulator router at http://support.dlink.com/emulators/di804hv/hwiz.htm

Thanks a lot,
Chris

Have you tried using the IP address of the machine you are trying to Remote Desktop to as opposed to the Computer Name when logging in? So far that is the only way I can get to mine.
