VNC Viewer

[jake550]

I have a small home network of 3 pc's and have installed VNC server on each. I would like to access one of the computers from a remote location but have noticed all of the 3 computers have the same ip address as they are using the same router. How would i be able to choose which pc i remotely access if they all have the same ip??

Tell you what...thats a bloody good question.you are sure? try running a cmd promp in your run window and type
ipconfig
see what this says for all three i am curious if subnet and gateway are the same lemme knw ;-)

i have just checked all comps and they all have the same gateway and subnet. I just cant see how i will be able to 'choose' which pc i get access to on the network as the only information i am able to enter in vnc is the ip of the comp i want to view, any ideas??

Forward a certain port on the router, like 85230 (random) to the computer you want to access. Then from outside your network you should be able to point VNC to that port number and get in.
