OK, how do I enable and forward Port 3389?
Q: How to fix the error "Remote Assistance connection could not be
established because the remote host name could not be resolved"?
A: When you receive an invitation from an Internet user whose computer is
behind a router or firewall, the IP sent to you is the private IP behind the
router or firewall. So that you can't access the computer. To fix this
issue, 1) edit the invitation IP address and also make sure the port 3389 is
open. 2) Use Windows/MSN Messenger to establish the Remote Assistance
session. 3) make sure the port 3389 is forwarded to the remote computer.

That is specific to your router. Check out the manual or search online.
