Infiltrator Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I didn't know you have to switch on your monitor, in order to remotely connect into your computer. It's not like you are sitting in front of the computer. On the other hand, is the monitor physically switched off or is it on stand by?
