I have followed the directions to change the listening
port for Remote Desktop and forwarded the ports on the
Router. The only computer that will allow a connection is
the default port of 3389. Adding :3390 to the address
still does not allow connection to the remote computer.
What needs to be done to allow Remote Desktop to acccess
different computers connected to the same router other
than port forwarding and changing the listening ports on
each of the computer?
