Hi Everyone,

I thought I'd give this project another shot. I've got my router configured to allow 3389 to get through, which gives me RDP access to my equipment sitting behind my router (RT-AC3100 running 380.68). I'm a StrongVPN subscriber, and so when I connect my router to the VPN, my equipment no longer is available to me across the internet via RDP, when attempting to reach it through my VPN's public IP.

I'm wondering if the default VPN configuration blocks all incoming ports, and no longer looks at the port forwarding list under the WAN tab? What is the best way to figure out if this port is actually open, and tied to my VPN public IP? If this port is not open for this IP, could you please give me some hints on how I can open this port up using a command? Is this expected behavior?

Thank you!
