Need advice on flawless connection via Remote Desktop

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

I use Remote Desktop with a Linksys BEFSR41 4-Port Broadband router or a Buffalo WBR-G54 4-Port
Broadband router/802.11b/g Wireless Access Point. Both work equally as well by simply
forwarding/opening TCP Port 3389 to the private LAN IP of my XP Pro desktop...
