Re: RD behind two routers

You would need to forward TCP Port 3389 through the Linksys router (your office networks front end
to the public internet) to the private static LAN IP of the D-Link router. You would also need to
forward TCP Port 3389 through the D-Link router to the private LAN IP of the PC your trying to
connect to using Remote Desktop. From a remote location call using the public IP address (as
assigned by your office ISP) of the Linksys router.
