Can you ping any IP addresses on the company network after the VPN has
connected?
How are you trying to connect using RDP? NetBIOS (computer) name, FQDN or by
IP address?
Can you ping your dekstop by single name, FQDN or IP address?
Has your machine "fell asleep?"
Is your machine configured to allow remote connections?
