Re: Win XP & Remote Desktop & Linksys Router Actually, you only need to forward port 3389 in order to use Remote Desktop (or Terminal Service in Win2000). And you can also change the port number in XP. Microsoft has a knowledge base article about how to change port number. |

Have you successfully got it working while only forwarding port 3389? I know when I tried it I couldn't get it to work. When I forwarded port 4908 is when it started working.

 | Yes, I have it working here with just 3389 to my desktop as well. I did have to apply the update to fix remote desktop failing to connect. It was very intermittent until I applied the update from the windowsupdate site. |
