You guys/girls have been such a huge help for me when it has come to my Access questions so I thought I would try this forum out to see if you all could help me one more time.
I have recently put together a new computer and everything is working great except for one thing. RDP will not connect through my works VPN connection.
I plugged my good old laptop in to the same router and it has no problems happily connecting.
The message I get on the new machine is "the connection the remote computer was broken" etc.
I have checked all of my network settings and they appear to be identical to the laptops.
I am using XP Pro with SP2. I have tried turning the firewall and virus protection off which BTW they are both on with the laptop and no problems. I have ensured the Exceptions have been allowed so when it is on life should be good.
I have even lowered the MTU on the router from 1500 to 1400 thinking that was it. But when I go to command line and check it returns the packets no problem.
So I am at a loss here. I can VPN in just fine and able to connect to the server and see what I need there but I really need access to my work computer from home and I hate dragging the old laptop out to do it.
Any help would be great or even new ideas to pursue.
Thanks.
