How to connect to your Forex VPS with RDP

3 min readUpdated July 2026

Your Forex VPS runs Windows, and you connect to its desktop using RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). Once your VPS is active, your dashboard shows the connection details and a one-click .rdp file.

The fastest way (Windows)

  1. Open your dashboard and select your VPS.
  2. Click 'Download .rdp' — this file is preconfigured with your server address and port.
  3. Open the downloaded file, enter your VPS password when prompted, and you're on the desktop.

Manual connection (any Windows PC)

  1. Press Win+R, type 'mstsc' and press Enter.
  2. Enter the full address shown in your dashboard, e.g. 203.0.113.10:41234 (IP and custom port).
  3. Sign in with the username 'trader' (or as shown) and your VPS password.

macOS, Android and iOS

Install the free 'Windows App' (formerly Microsoft Remote Desktop) from the App Store or Google Play. Add a new PC using the same address, port, username and password from your dashboard.

For security we move RDP off the default port 3389 to a random high port. Always use the exact address:port from your dashboard — the .rdp download already includes it.
