Can't connect to home PC over 3G

Postby cjboyd11 » Sat Apr 30, 2011 8:43 pm

When I am home on wifi, I can connect to my PC from my iPad, but when I am away from home I can't connect to my PC over 3G from my iPad. I keep getting an error message. How do I set this up?

To connect from outside of your network, you need to create a different connection that uses your public IP address, instead of the internal IP provided by your router. You will also have to open port 5900 in your router (use port forwarding).
