Re: How do I work Remote Desktop Mobile?

Well, using the native Remote Desktop can be a chore, but it can be done.

1) Set up port forwarding on your router to forward port 3389 to whichever IP your desktop is located.

2) Make sure your Vista machine has a user name and password

3) Make sure the Firewall to the Vista machine will allow the Remote Desktop program through

4) Once all that is done, log into the machine by entering your WAN IP address (that's the one from the outside, not the 192.... one). It will ask for username and password, and your in!

A way easier way....LogMeIn.com Free and works!
