Configuring internet access

Top  Previous  Next

 

After you verified that ThinRDP is running internally, you can make it available from the internet. If you have a static IP/domain, you might prefer providing internet access through your own external IP.

 

1. Test the access

 

Test the internet access by typing into a browser the following url:

 

https://external-ip:port

or

https://your-domain:port

 

2. Configuring the router:

 

Providing access to the internet through the external IP/domain, will require you to forward the port manually:

 

2.1. Port Forwarding:

 

a. Access the router by typing into a web browser the IP for the Default Gateway.

b. Authenticate with the router credentials.

c. Go to the port forwarding section and pick a port for internet access. It can be the same port number as the one ThinRDP is running on, or a different one.

d. Forward the internet port to the machine internal IP where you have installed ThinRDP and the port where it's running.

e. Save the changes.
