Linksys BEFW11S4 Router

I can't get port forwarding to forward incoming RDP requests to Jennifer's new computer. I told her computer to allow incoming RDP connections. Turned off her firewall also, even though I shouldn't have to.

And when I go to this website, it says the port is closed. Just maddening.

Oops. I remember now. I have to change the listening port on her computer.

1. Start Registry Editor.
2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\PortNumber
3. On the Edit menu, click Modify, and then click Decimal.
4. Type the new port number, and then click OK.
5. Quit Registry Editor.

I had to reboot it after this to get the port to open up, but it's open now, baby!
