Originally, I posted this in the NEWBIE section - But figured having it posted here would gain more traffic; Be gentle... So I finally took the plunge and bought a new n810 Let me lay a quick foundation for you on my background with Linux based system; None. With that said, thank god for the internet and these forums... heh. ive been able to quickly learn the general functions and messed around with xterm. After days of reading, I finally got the courage to install rdesktop. So now that I have successfully logged in via my wireless network. I decided to try and connect to it via using an EVDO Bluetooth connection via my paired treo 700p (w/ PAM hack) and n810. I have opened the default port of 3389 (assigned by windows) via my router and assigned "Public IP" to the IP my isp issues. I Believe I have everything setup correct but when I try to connect using either of two cmds below, I receive the same error; rdesk -f -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD MY.IP.ADDY rdesk -f -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD MY.IP.ADDY:3389 1. It will give me an error that says ERROR: connect: No route to host or 2. Autoselected keyboard map en-us and then just lock up there... When i re-run the command to try and connect I can see data being sent on my treo but after a couple of minutes it stops and goes inactive... So my question is... Is my phone not allowing me to connect because it cannot do UDP TCP via 3389 ? or is the EVDO connection just too slow to allow a usuable rdesktop enviornment ? Any help would be greatly appreciated... Just so you know I have not been able to try connecting via another Wireless connection not of my own... maybe I can walk the neighborhood for an unsecure connection to see if I can connect ? If this helps any I am currently setup on Verizon FiOS here in California, my router is in Actiontec
