W7 RDP & MSTSC
Hi all, I have encountered a problem that I cannot fix..... First of all running <acronym title="Windows 7">W7</acronym> Pro Trying tp get into the network at my wife's employer. Go to their web site and get logged in. Then go to their remote desktop connection and the tunnel gets created. When the system goes to launch mstsc it gives the dialog to confirm that you want it to run, get the busy circle for about 5 secs then nothing so we cannot get into the network completely. Even though the tunnel has been created, we cannot do anything on their system. However, if we go onto my computer running WinXP Home, we can do everything with no problems. We are both going through the same router. The only difference there is that I am wired on my desktop and she is wireless on her laptop. Are there some settings that I am missing? Anything else that I am missing? I always thought I am pretty good with computers but this has me stumped! Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Jim
