ip chicken says my ip is 173.18.191.250

Also i took my ip from dynamic to static

I activated RD on my computer, i Created a username and Password.

i have tried every combination and it just times out.
I repeat..192.168.x.x is LOCAL IP..use this IP only if you want to connect via WIFI..if you plan to connect via WIFI..if you plan to connect remotely..thats not the IP....

You need to port forward 173.18.191.250:3389 -> 192.168.1.248:3389 ..assuming 173.18.191.250 is your remote IP...and 192.168.1.248 is your local ip..

You will also need a static remote IP/hostname as if it changes you will not be bale to connect..


Domain is not important as chances are you are not enrolled in one..
