So i have a bit of an odd question and i think i already know the answer but i want to be sure. I would like to set up RDP for 3 desktops at my house to be accessed over a vpn when not home. Currently i am running a VPN on a linksys WRT54g router with dd-wrt. I would like to know what all needs to be done to limit the RDP connections to my lan and VPN connection only? IE I would like to block RDP access over the normal wan connection completely.
 
I think he's trying to avoid letting wireless clients connect to the RDP on the subnet.

If that's the case, create a new vlan, drop the wireless in that and only give it access to the internet, not the local lan vlan.
 
Thank you both very much, sorry i was not more clear in my question. My main worry was ensuring that someone would not be able to access the computers just by using IP:port. I was hoping that it was as simple as not enabling the port forwarding but was not sure if UPNP would auto port forward the connections.
