You do need that, and with that checked you can't be blocking any
traffic through that firewall. You should do a packet capture on LAN
of the firewall, you should see the SYN going in and coming out of the
interface, and I expect you'll see no other traffic. Also do a capture
on the host initiating the connection. Most likely cause is either a
host based firewall, or a firewall somewhere else in between, that
either allows pings but not RDP, or isn't setup appropriately to
handle asymmetrically routed traffic on the other end of the ISDN.
