April 16, 200719 yr Attempting to control my neighbors computer (with his approval) using Remote Desktop Control. I have used this program to work on computers in Kansas as well as California and my own State of Montana. However for some reason every time I try to attempt to connect to my neighbors computer it times out. I have pinged his computer from mine and it times out, I've pinged mine from his with same outcome. He is has DSL I have a Cable modem. I have ran thru all the FAQ's on the OEM of the program and searched all over the WWW but cannot figure out what is wrong.....I disabled the firewalls and still nothing. I have 2 desktops and two laptops connected thru a wireless Linksys router.....and as I said before I have worked on computers all over the place with no problems.........any help out there ??
