>Hi Hilmar:

>>>I a m new to using Real VNC. The remote pc which I wish to access has the IP Address 192.168.1.102 and mine is 192.168.1.100 (both pc's are running through separate Lynksys routers at different sites.).
>>>
>>>What should I do to access pc 192.168.1.102? Thank you kindly.

>>IIRC, those are private addresses, not public ones; I don't know whether it is at all possible to access them from outside a local network.

>Thank you for your response. The actual ip address of the computer I wish to access is 64.110.219.183. However, when my friend moves the mouse over the VNC icon in his system tray, he sees 192.168.1.102. What should I consider doing? Thanks again Hilmar.
A computer may have more than one IP address; for instance, at our Local Cisco Academy, the server (which includes the proxy) has one for the internal network, and one that connects to the outside world.
Running ipconfig, or winipcfg, should give you more detailed information.
