Can't access Remote Desktop when connected via router, but can when connected via access point
Hi
Very strange networking issue.
Here is my topology (desktop in seperate room to router):
Router -> Powerline -> Desktop
I cannot connect to Remote Desktop if connected to WiFi via my Router. Note that desktop gets internet access via router absolutely fine, and also gets DHCP assigned address absolutely fine.
HOWEVER - if I'm connected to the wireless access point that is co-located in same room as my Desktop, I can connect.
All devices are on the same subnet (255.255.255.0).
Things I have tried:
- Switching on/off all devices :-)
- Switching off firewall on both desktop and router
- Turn off CGMP snooping
- Opened the appropriate ports on NAT
I am now at a loss, except for a possible faulty router (this same setup worked with BT Homehub 5 - which I can no longer use as now on TalkTalk).
Any tips much appreciated!
Thanks
