Remote Access from Vista Home Premium to Vista Home Premium and XP Home Edition

I am trying to connect to two computers that are connected to a Linksys Router using Remote Assistance on a Vista Home Premium Machine. I get the error message that the person you are trying to help may have closed remote assistance. I get the same message when trying to connect to either machine. I am guessing the problem is with a setting in the router, but I don't know what setting.

You should forward the ports on the router to the IP Addresses of the machines, that you want to connect to. On Symantec PC Anywhere, it is ports 5631 and 32, on Windows remote desktop connection it is port 3389 that needs to be forwarded.

Theres a program called hamachi that has the ability to connect two machines over the internet just like they where in the same room, works well for remote desktop or VPN...

Extremely easy to setup and use plus its free!
