Hi Guys
I would like to set up a VPN. I have read that one needs to know the
IP of the computer. If I understand it when I boot up my computer the
rounter gives me an IP address. This is an internal one. My router
logs me on to my highspeed and then my Internet Provider would give the
rounter an IP address that would be available on the internet. How do
I get around this. When you use Netmeeting and want to call someone
that is behind a router when IP do you use and how is the call routed
to that networked computer
Thanks
Rick
 
In this case, you should setup static IP instead of using DHCP. then do the port forwarding.

Thanks
Did that over the weekend and it works good.
Can I do this with each computer on my internal network and then if I
do how would the router know what computer to forward the incoming call
to
