    I am trying to use remote desktop connection from my pc at college to my pc at home(Both running Xp pro). My pc at home is conected to a router, it's ip is 192.168.0.2, the router is then connected to a broaband modem ip 168.123.456.78. My question is how do I connected to my pc passing through the router. I've tried things like 168.123.456.78(Router's ip)/192.168.0.2(pc's ip) but remote desktop doesnt see this as a valid address. Also is there any ports I need to open also in my routers' firewall.
    Thanks in advance
