(1) LAN IP: 192.168.10.1
(2) Encryption: WPA2 PSK
2. Router (port-forward rule)

This forwards inbound RDP traffic (TCP/3389) from the Internet to the
Windows PC, enabling Remote Desktop access.
3. Firewall (screened subnet side)

points).

extra services over WPA2 PSK).

10.100.0.1 IP facing that subnet).
