Have you tried:
<a href="#" onclick="setip('192.20.31.1');"> RDP </a>

Can you ping 192.20.31.1 from the machine you are running this on? It sounds as this may be a local IP address.

the 192 address is not the real address I'm using, I'm using a public IP 65.x.x.x and I can rdp into it when I'm using the remote desktop client manually
