FVS318G Permit RDP between all LAN computers

You have to be running XP pro or Win 7 pro or a OS which supports RDP you need to have a password set on each PC You need to check allow remote connections under Sys Properties if OS has RDP

All windows O/S XP and up will have RDP.
Also you will need to be aware that mixing old RDP version and new version can conflict if you do not setup correctly.

I would also use IPsec VPN tunnel instead of inbound rules for 3389 from RDP exploitation

Thanks for the quick replies.
RDP has been working fine between all computers prior to changing out this router...so no other issues such as you suggested seem likely.
I called support and they indicated that this router should have NO impact on local traffic, so I just tried restarting all the other switches/etc on the LAN...still no joy.
I guess I will restart all the computers as well and see if that helps.

Ok...so..the RDP works if I specify the IP address of the LAN computer.
So, apparently, I have some issue with the DNS being retained from the old router?!

June, Wife's laptop with Win 7 home does not have it and when I checked as to why not Microsoft said it's not part of that OS version. OP You need to check that your Home connection is still set to home in network sharing and connections. My one win 7 pro 64 has changed when switching routers.

You have to download RDP over win7 version may not include

I tried that in the past I'll try again now, thanks Be back results shortly

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Remote-Desktop-Connection-frequently-asked-questions Please Help me understand what this means (the last sentence clearly states you can't use it like I stated in post 2) But you claim you can. :confused: If you have a link for RDP or RDC which includes Win7 Home as being supported please post it. I cannot seem to find it. Thanks, Bill All editions of Windows 7 include Remote Desktop Connection.
