  • @jaketvee at RDC you say quick: put :3389 behind it. Is this at every pc, or is this code different in other country, network or pc??

  • @rubeniscoolful That's the port used by RDP; it's always going to be the same unless you change it manually.

  • does other computer needs internet connection if i get to their computer from mine?

  • @1231abdulmannan If the other computer is on the same local network then no, neither computers need an internet connection. If you're trying to do it across the internet then obviously both will need an internet connection.

  • is it safe to use desktop remote control on any kind of device? im just curious because if i can control my desktop from other devices could that be possible that other people can grant access to my computer without my knowing with their devices?

  • @SkyfalconTin Unless you open up ports on your router, it'll only be accessible from your local network anyway. Even then, you need a password when you try to connect.

  • Selling Cheap RDP

  • really great video, very professional as well.  I'm a mac user that fucking hates lugging around my 5 pound windows machine. This is so sick now.

  • My computer Under "remote" only has one check box and not the three radio buttons yours has any ideas?

  • Hey, quick question. Can't be bothered with dynamic DNS setup unless I really need to. So what about over a VPN? in my case i'm in uni and require programs from home. I have my PC at home turned on with my VPN to uni on. My internal IP is static what about my VPN IP?
