I went in the router and set a port forwarding rule to forward traffic coming to port 3389 to port 3389 of the internal IP address of my home server. but still I was not able to connect. PS: I also opened Windows firewall to allow remote desktop. What else could be the issue?ericvico wrote:You did not set up port forwarding for port 3389 in your router? Is your port 3389 open?
