Windows – Remote Desktop: can’t connect to remote computer

lanremote desktopterminal-serviceswindows xp

I am trying to RDP to another computer on a LAN and sometimes get the folllowing error:

This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Try connecting again. If the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer or your network administrator.

This only occurs sometimes and not very frequently. What is causing this to occur?

Best Answer

first check are you able to ping the remote machine in the LAN. from command prompt type this ping remote machine ip address example

ping 10.128.58.25

if you are still not able to do that check one time by turn off the firewall of the remote machine.
