So I've managed to get it working using tightVNC no worries, and viewing the remote computer via VNCviewer but I'd like to try and step it up a bit.
I've enabled port forwarding on the correct ports for tightVNC, yet my DNS still points to the router? This isn't so much a problem, but might be related to my other question:
is it possible to view and use RDP via an internet browser? This has obvious advantages such as being able to access my remote PC from pretty much any computer on the internet in the world. If I'm unable to do this I'll just get u3 tightVNC and use the VNC viewer from that...
Or is there a better (free) solution than tightVNC?
TIA.
