Hari: Heya. You ask a fairly common question: your PC is on a LAN that uses the 192.168.*.* address range, but those IP addresses are for "internal", intra-LAN only. Somewhere on your network, there's a router which automatically translates your internal 192.168.x.y IP address into a "real" IP address that works on the Internet.
I've put up a FAQ about routers and VNC and getting them to all play nicely together here: http://faq.gotomyvnc.com/fom-serve/cache/133.html Another contribution to that FAQ'o'Matic describes a step-by-step process in getting a router setup: http://faq.gotomyvnc.com/fom-serve/cache/127.html I hope one or both prove useful! -Scott > Hi, > I had a small doubt.
