Omg you’re a freaking genius I got on without any problems, now the only other issue I have is the IP address. Ever since last night my laptop has latched on to the ip address that was ‘suppose’ to be the XP pro sp3 ip address and what keeps happening is my pc keeps dropping the wireless and reconnecting after every few minutes, is this because of the ip address? When I went on to port forwarding yesterday I assigned the ip address from the pc in port forwarding but now that ip address is given to the laptop so how would I go about doing this so the ip address can only be accessed by that pc? The model of my netgear router is WGR614V9 and on the left I tried to see some option of reserving an ip address but couldn’t find anything, I would choose the reserving the ip address rather than the static ip address because I was having trouble yesterday trying to set up static (I got to the dns server part but when I ran ip config / all it was the same as the ip address of the router but in the tutorial it said it should be some different numbers, when I logged on my router it says the dns is assigned automatically) and also there are quite a few laptops on our network and asking them all if I can mess around this their laptops will cause a few problems. Finally can someone tell me how secure rdp is? If someone gets my ip address and then hacks my password am I in a lot of trouble Can I do anything to make it even more secure?
