Hello,


I'm trying tot setup BitDefender Total Security 2010 under Windows 7 64bit.


I keep having problems connecting to the PC using RDP from a PC outside my network.


I've already changed the settings for my network adapter to Trusted Local, Stealth Off, Generic Profile Yes.


I'm able to connect from a PC within my network.


With Vista / TS 2009 I did not have any problems.


And with the Firewall turned off I'm also able to connect.


Any advise in how to get the RDP working?


Thanks in advance.

    I've fixed the problem by adding an extra rule for the RDP port.


    I can now connect from outside the network.

    Can you please post the solution steps? I am having the same problem. I added RDP rule to allow port 3389 but it doesn't work. Thank you.

    nvm I figured it out searching old forums. The solution comes from:


    "Berneanu Cristian


    Make sure you selected 3389 for local port and 1024-65535 for remote ports in the rule created and move the rule on top of the list."
