You need port-forwarding.  Please read the FAQ and manual:

To know the public IP address assigned to you by your ISP, you could go to 
this URL which, in the same time, could help you check if your config is correct.

 Objet : Connecting to a listening system across internet
 
 I am a new user. I tried to connect to a user that had
 VNC listening on their side with the IP address that
 pops up when they move the mouse over the VNC icon in
 the system tray. I could not connect.
 
 Does it make a difference if the receiving home system
 is using a broadband connection with a router in
 between the PC and the cable modem?
 
 What are the sequential steps to get a connection as a
 first timer?(Preferrably the most secure one)
