tracert not working
From my home PC (Windows XP), I tried 'tracert' to outbound.
It is goes through fine. Of course, I can get onto Internet.
C:\>tracert www.google.com
Tracing route to www.l.google.com [64.233.167.99]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 10 ms 6 ms 7 ms 73.139.xxx.xxx
2 9 ms 7 ms 7 ms 68.87.132.xxx
bla...
17 35 ms 40 ms 46 ms 64.233.175.26
18 34 ms 73 ms 34 ms py-in-f99.google.com [64.233.167.99]
Trace complete.
But, when I tried 'tracert' from outside to my home PC,
C:\>tracert 69.250.xxx.xxx
Tracing route to c-69-250-xxx-xxx.hsd1.md.c omcast.net [69.250.xxx.xxx]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
bla...
21 19 ms 13 ms 13 ms [68.87.132.xxx]
22 * * * Request timed out.

26 * * * Request timed out.
27 * * * Request timed out.
28 * * * Request timed out.
29 * * * Request timed out.
30 * * * Request timed out.
As you can see, 'request timed out' occurs right after 68.87.132.xxx
That is the IP 73.139.xxx.xxx
What is the the IP (73.139.xxx.xxx)? Is there a way to ping from outside to my home PC?
My guess is Remote Desktop is not working because of the block at 73.139.xxx.xxx.
Any ideas, please?
Please see https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/22823034/Remote-Desktop-on-Windows-XP.html for more details.
On my home pc:
- no firewall in place
- symantec virus software installed
- Remote Desktop Connection 6.0 client update applied
- NVIDIA service not running
thx much

Second you are getting replies on the other post and they are all good replies and suggestions.
You need the port forwarding setup. Are you using a static ip address from comcast? if so you need to apply that address to the wan side of your router and then apply a private ip to the lan side of router and a private in the same subnet to your pc. then you need to forward from the public address on the wan interface to the private on the lan interface and off to your pc.
