I want to connect to my work computer running XP pro SP2. It has a D-link
router with a fast DSL connection. I'm using XP Home SP2 with a D-Link
router and a VERY fast cable modem at my house. I have open the port on my
work router to aloow RD to connect. I have set the connection speed in the
experiance tab on both machines to Broadband. I can connect to and log into
my work computer. The desktop of my work computer show up fine. But I can't
control my work computer. The keyboard and mouse do not do anything. I can
move the mouse over objects but I can not click on them. I get a "biong"
sound when I click on anything. Is there something I have to enable in order
to allow the client computer to take control? Thanks for any help you can
give.
