I'm trying to permit someone to connect into one of my two computers. They
are connected to a D-Link Router. I set up an Incoming Connection and gave that User permissions, after setting them up as a User on the computer. Not sure now what IP Address and ports to give them to put in when they set up a VPN Connection. I keep getting what looks like an internal IP address, possible because I use a HughesNet dish for high speed internet access (my only option). Can anyone help? Thank you! |
