RDP Access stopped working after external IP Address chnage

I have had a client call me today to say that a telecoms company has been in and replaced their router and also they now have a different external IP Address.

Unbeliveably he didnt liase with me in any way and I was completely unaware this was happening. All their staff are now unable to access their desktop PCs via RDP which as they are all working from home during lockdown is prettty crucial.

They have server 2012 running RD Gateway.

They access their office PCs from home by opening the RDP clinet on their home PC and entering the hostname as follows:

gh-pc15.domainname.local

What I cant understand is how the RDP client is supposed to connected to this .local hostname.

They have a certificate generated by the server to allow RDPO connections. Do I just need to run the wizard to create a new certificate or am I looking in the wrong place here?
