I want Mullvad VPN to run on my Windows VPS. However, the moment I enable Mullvad I can no longer connect to my VPS via Remote Desktop, it simply does not connect.

Some further requirements:

  • I don't want to whitelist only specific IP addresses to be allowed to connect via RDP as the IP address from which I connect changes all the time, so I rather want to just allow all IP addresses via RDP (who have the right credentials of course)
  • I don't want to overcomplicate things by using Dynamic DNS or other additional tools

Here's what I tried:

  • Open Windows Firewall with Advanced Security.
  • Create a new inbound rule to allow Remote Desktop connections:
  • Click on "Inbound Rules" in the left pane.
  • Click on "New Rule..." in the right pane.
  • Select "Port" and click "Next".
  • Select "TCP" and "Specific local ports: 3389", then click "Next".
  • Select "Allow the connection", then click "Next".
  • Ensure the rule applies to all profiles (Domain, Private, Public), then click "Next".
  • Name the rule (e.g., "Allow RDP") and click "Finish".

This did not help. What else can I try?

  • The client that is trying to connect to the VPS which is connected to the VPN is also connected to the same VPN?
