Port forwarding TSE for Cisco RV042G

[spothin92]

Hi, I just configured a Cisco RV042G small Business Routers on my network. My problem is that I would like to permit TSE through the WAN1 and I am not able to do it. I setup these informations from the menu : - Setup / Forwarding TSE[TCP/3389~3389]->192.168.1.15 - Firewall / Access Rules : Allow TSE [3389] WAN1 192.168.1.15 ~ 192.168.1.11 192.168.1.15 ~ 192.168.1.15 Always How can I configure it please ? Thanks for you help.

Hello,

I'm sorry you are having issues with your device.

According to your explanation, you are trying to forward port 3389, Remote desktop, to a single device on your network with IP address 192.168.1.15.

If that is what you are trying to accomplish then:

1- You can delete the access rule as it is not needed on this device.

2- Make sure the rule that you created under Setup - Forwarding is enabled.

3- Make sure the computer with IP address 192.168.1.15 is using the IP address of the RV042G as the Default Gateway.

4- Go to your system summary page and check what the IP address of the WAN1 connection is, then, go to http://whatismyip.org and compare both addresses, if they are not the same then thats your problem. You will need to contact your ISP and ask them to put the modem on Bridge Mode so that all the traffic passes directly to the router.

I hope this helps. Please let us know.

Thanks for your answer cchamorr.

Yes it is exactly that I'm trying to do.

Today on the RV042G I'm oblige to setup the interface WAN 1 in this mode (Obtain an IP automatically) and in the summary I confirm that the adress showed is different from my public address.

Unfortunately I'm not able to set the router of the ISP in bridge mode because this function doesn't exist. Before the Cisco I had a Netgear and I found a away to bypass the fact that the bridge was not supported.

If you have another idea would be fantastic.

Thanks for the reply.

There is nothing else that can be done on the RV042G router. all the configuration is in place.

The only other way to get this to work is to see if you can do port forwarding on your modem and then forward all the ports to the WAN address of the RV042G, or if the modem allows you to create a DMZ then you can connect the router to the DMZ port but that's about it.

Please let us know.
