Hi I have a laptop at home running Vista Home Premium & have a vpn along with RDP set up to log into our work network & remote is onto a PC running XP Pro.

My VPN gets me into the work's network however I now cannot connect the remote desktop anymore, this has been set up for over a year & no issues, now will not connect at all.

The error I get is: Remote Desktop Disconnected This computer cannot connect to the remote computer. Try connecting again. If the problem persists contact owner of remote computer or your network administrator.

ok so I have tried to ping the static IP address of the remote computer & it times out & states 100% packet loss.

I was also in the office yesterday & checked that the RDP was accepting incoming connections & I have made sure that it is do not use a terminal gateway server is checked in the advanced tab.

I have password & user name on the PC & have checked that it still has a static IP address assigned. I also have the full name of the computer inserted?

Any other troubleshooting ideas? I've been all over the net & tried most of the offered solutions?

I'm running into the same problem. I've been using Remote DeskTop for 2 years with no issue, and suddenly now, it stopped working. I got that same error message 'This computer cannot connect to the remote...'. Have you found any resolution and can you share?
Thanks,
Cathy
