Frustrated with Port Forwarding

I need to be able to logon to remote desktop into 3 PC's on my network and the server. I have only got port 3389 and 3390 to work. Can anyone provide any suggestions to making the others work.

I have a Dlink wired router that has up to 8 ports available for port forwarding. I have tried 3388,3391, and multiple other ports to make this work. Currently 3389 and 3390 are setup to forward to workstations and are working fine.

I really need to be able to get into the other PCs and server using remote desktop. Remote desktop is setup and enabled on all worstations.

should work with just port 3389
provided that the computers are turned on AND you specified the IP address of each computer in the forwarding table.

could use logmein or dameware and forget the hassle of Remote Desktop

change the RDP listening port
Try changing the RDP listening port on the other PC's. Do port to port matching.
