Troubleshooting a broken internet connection on remote desktop connections can be frustrating. Here are a few steps you can take to try and identify the root cause and restore your connection:
- Check your modem and router to ensure both are powered up and all the cables are connected.
- Ensure the host machine is also connected to the internet.
- Check the Firewall configuration to make sure it is not blocking the remote desktop connection.
- Restart your machine and modem/router. Allow the machine and modem/router to initialise before attempting to reconnect.
- Check if the remote desktop connection is disabled. If it is, enable it.
- Try different browsers or web-client solutions to rule out any browser-specific issues.
