Have pcAnywhere 10 on each side.
We are trying to use pcAnywhere over TCP/IP using cable.
The host machine is in an office behind a router supplied by the cable co., and is using the default ports. Now when the remote machine (at a home) attempts to connect to the host (at the office), no connection is established - (it says commuications error - unable to attach to specified device - no conneciton)
however if you reverse the roles of the machines, it connects just fine.
I think this is telling me that either:
1. The ports opened up on the router that are pointing to the host computer at the office site is not configured correctly (even though the cable co said they are)
2. The cable co. told me the incorrect address for our on-site office router.
Am I mistaken , or - Is there anything else it could be.
Thank you. How much more water would there be in the ocean if it weren't for sponges?
