Cannot ping my router
I'm trying to setup Remote Desktop capabilities for the Plant Manager so when he's on the road, he can access the server. For the life of me, I can't get any access to my server from outside our net...

I found the problem. It was the actual Firewall on the server. Took me a while to figure out if it was the DOMAIN, PUBLIC, or PRIVATE firewall setttings.

One other note. I took a PC and hung it off the Cable Modem from Charter, assigned it a static IP from a 5 pack that we have. I drove to our sister plant, pulled up Remote Desktop, and put that IP addy in. I connected and logged into the PC. So now I know it's a setting somehwere within the router, but not sure where to look.
Thoughts?
