Hi
I have been working on this a while.
I am confused about VPN, I am going away for 3 months and would like to be
able to transfer files from my home PC. I will be able to use Win2K or WinXP
at the remote location and I have Win2K at home. I will be OK setting up the
connection from the other end but I don't understand what to do at home. I
have the following:
Zen ADSL
PC running Win2K
Netgear router using DCHP to assign IP to my PC and also to collect the IP
from Zen.
I know I can get 8 further IPs from Zen.
I don't understand what happens then. Presumably I give one IP to my router
and one to my PC, is this correct?. When I am away which IP do I use to
connect through VPN, the IP of my PC? If so how does "the internet" know
that my PC is sitting behind my router and behind all of Zens setup?
Any help would be fantastic.
Cheers
