Nothing ever seems to work on the first try.
I have XP at home, trying to connect to it via remote desktop from my Windows 2K system at work. I know my IP address, remote desktop is enabled on my host machine, I have downloaded the software, but I just can't connect.
I have a Siemes Speedstream 4100 PPPoE DSL modem, I didn't see any firewall settings on the configuration page but maybe I didn't look hard enough.
Anyone know if that's probably the problem? Is there a specific port on the modem I have to open?
And I can't ping my IP, when I do a tracert it times out before it hit's my IP.
