port forwarding is showing the wrong IP

I'm not sure what is going on here...

I'm trying to forward an RDP port to a static IP that is hooked up the a 2nd subnet within my LAN.

For some reason, the 'pc name' isn't showing the correct IP address. It should show 192.168.1.35, but it's showing up as 192.168.2.2 within the port forwarding options.

This is how it's showing up in the port forwarding page:

connection list page:

Any suggestions on what's going on?

Make sure you are port forwarding to the server on the 192.168.2.x.

Where are you building that forwarding rule? It looks like the wrong place.

are you tring to rdp from the 192.168.1 (verizon subnet) or from the outside?

If from the verizon subnet then the rule should be on the linksys router at 192.168.1.35

If from the outside the the rule on the verizon router should forward tcp port 3389 to 192.168.1.35 and there should be another rule on the linksys router forwarding the same port to 192.168.2.2.

If you are trying to access from the oustside I'd change the listener on the terminal server to be something other than 3389 for obscurities sake - it's a simple registry change or you can use this KB (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306759 )
