you will need to tell the hub/router where to send the port 5900 request it would just be dropped right now
follow the instructions to forward the request from the hub/router www.portforward.com has guides for many hubs/routers and vnc don't forget your windows firewall need to have an exception depending on your virus or firewall software they may need adjustments too steve [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Background ======= My employer uses RealVNC to administer client networks all over town. I have it installed on my work machine. I use it daily to monitor Windows servers for several of our business clients. I recently installed the free trial version of RealVNC on my home PC and it is running a VNC Server instance. I would like to be able to connect to my home PC while at work in order to utilize various resources on the home computer. As you see from my email address, I use roadrunner. This is my hi-speed ISP for my house. Question ====== When I run www.whatismyip.com from any pc at home, I get the same exact IP, which is the IP assigned to my hub (the ip is provided by roadrunner). I can ping this ip from my work machine and get a valid response. I am assuming that this is the ip I would use with my VNC viewer at work. But the VNC connection always fails, because this is simply the ip to my hub. How do I "drilldown" further in order to connect to my VNC Server at home? _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list .
