I recently setup the remote desktop function on my HTPC at home and enabled remote access function in my router. I forwarded all the ports required for remote desktop as well as the ports for WOL. Last night, i was able to remote access my router, and my HTPC from a friend's home(a home network, instead of a work network).
Today, i am having trouble accessing my router and my HTPC(at work, with a work laptop). I did manage to access my router via proxies. So i am thinking, the problem may be due to the company's network settings/configurations.
So my question is: is there anyway that i could test whether the company allows outbond remote desktop? If it turns out that they dont, Are there any web based services allow me to access my HTPC remotely? I actually do like windows 7's RD client that came with OS. So that would be my first choice, but i guess i will settle for any cheap(free) third party softwares.
thanks for the help guys.
