    Allow access to port only from certain remote IP's

    Ok, I did that and used my cell as a hotspot and was able to connect to a computer in my network with RDP. When I turned off the hotspot the RDP connection was lost. That's great. My last question would be, why don't hackers attack OpenVPN?

    Allow access to port only from certain remote IP's

    Colin, Thanks, everything is working fine now. Deepcuts, I forgot about that website. I haven't used it in at least 15 years. I would like to take this RDP access to the next level. Is there a way to have one pc on my network or vlan that would be turned on only when I'm on the road that...

    Allow access to port only from certain remote IP's

    Allow access to port only from certain remote IP's

    Here is a screen cap of the port forwarding screen on my Asus RT-AC88U. I tried putting the IP of the PC making the RDP request in the Source Target cell. That did not work. Obviously I am missing something.

    Allow access to port only from certain remote IP's

    I am using an Asus RT-AC88U and would like to restrict access to port 3389 (RDP). I would like to only allow certain remote (outside my local network) IP addresses to gain access. It appeared I could do this using Windows Firewall with Advanced Security and setting an inbound rule on Remote...
