Troubleshooting Remote Desktop between two networks
#1
Photo 
Hi.  I have been trying to set up a native remote desktop access between two different household networks and am completely stuck.  The computer I want to remote desktop to is a Windows 7 Professional which I can RDC to within it's own home network flawlessly from another windows client.  I set it up with a static IP and forwarded port 3389 on the router to that IP and determined the external network IP.  Now theoretically when I open the RDC client window on the other remote household network and punch in that external IP, it should connect but it doesn't.  Instead I get the usual "Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer......" message.

Any ideas where I can troubleshoot further?

Thx!
