Hi,
Recently, a friend of mine taught me how to use it, and
since I've been using my laptop on my home network to
connect to my computer in my room, so I don't have to walk
the steps. Now, I've seen my friend connect to his home
computer from his laptop in school, a different network.
Now, when he puts his IP in, he connects, but when I put
mine in, it doesn't work. I'm wondering if I need to have
a port number or something to do it, or what I'm doing
wrong. Is there any way someone can explain what I need to
do to find my port number, if thats what I need, or what
exactly I need to do to connect from a different network?
If it helps, I have a router that's splitting the
connection between the family's Macintosh, and then my PC,
with the Mac being in the first slot on the router and my
PC being second.
