I'm confused. I have never been able to access my home PC by remote desktop from work, but I can access it from my wireless laptop while in my home using the external IP. It's so frustrating. I have checked the port forwarding on my router and that seems to be correct. Can someone point me in the right direction?

ps My work is not blocking me from using remote desktop, I am able to access other desktops no problem, it's just my desktop that I'm having probs with.
 
So you are able to RDP other PC's on your work network but not outside your work network? If this is the case, your company may have that blocked. If you can connect to other computers NOT on your work network, then I would say the setting is on your computer at home keeping it form connecting.
