Trouble with Remote Desktop connection


Recommended Posts

Posted

I received my R1 yesterday, and got everything set up using the great tutorials on this site.

 

My problem is that I have a computer in my house that I use as a media server for all of the rooms in the house.

 

I use Xbox 360's in Windows Media center to watch the stored movies and such on this server.

 

I use Remote Desktop to connect from my laptop, since the server is "headless".

 

After setting up the R1, I can no longer connect to the server with any of the 360's, or with Remote Desktop.

 

I have restarted the server machine multiple times, and I have verified that it is on the network.

 

Pulling my hair out trying to figure this one out.

 

Please help!!

Yea i have kinda have the same problem where i cant ping my devices connected to my access points, or as silly as this sounds Ddos my local devices. I use Plex for my media server and have no problems. But yea this is strange i'm sure one of the team at Netduma can help with our issues.

I think I have found the problem, and it's not anything with the R1, as expected.   :)

 

It seems that Windows sees the new router as an entirely new network, and as such, requires you to re-enable network sharing and remote desktop access.
