I am attempting to set up a Remote Desktop Connection on my Windows 7 Ultimate version.
I am now successfully able to connect to my host computer from within an intranet connection using local routing numbers 192.168.1.1XX. However, when I attempt to connect to it using my WAN IP address, I am unable to connect.
I have followed the instructions on PortForward.com for my router (DIR-615 upgraded to latest firmware available on DLink.com) http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Dlink/DIR-615/Remote_Desktop.htm
I have checked my port "open" status on http://canyouseeme.org/ and receive the following message when attempting to connect: Success: I can see your service on 24.205.5.29 on port (3389) Your ISP is not blocking port 3389.
After all of this, I am unable to connect to my RDP using my WAN IP even though I can connecting using my intranet IP.
I am sitting behind a Motorola Surboard Cable Modem fed into a DLink DIR-615 router. According to canyouseeme.org, my port forward is active. How can I debug this issue?
Try out Teamviewer I think you'd prefer it. – Griffin – 2013-02-17T18:39:32.610
the main problem is probably that your router cannot hairpin traffic IE cannot go out and come back in on the same interfaces. This is a common problem. If the external resources says your port forward is open and answering it is probably correct, Try to connect from someplace that isn't behind the modem doing the port forward and you should be all set. – Doon – 2013-07-28T16:56:48.473
