ISP: Wildblue.net (Satellite internet, 1.5Mbps/256Kbps)
Router: WRT-54G v5
IP Address Method: Dynamically Static (changes once every two or three months, literally)
Firewall: None (unless it's somehow built into the router)
I've got a computer on my LAN with UltraVNC server running, I can connect to it just fine over the LAN by connecting to "machine-name:ort", but on the Internet (meaning away from my house) I cannot connect to it. It is running Norton Firewall, but I turned it off.
My router has been instructed to forward any connection attempt to my IP address at the VNC port to the computer running VNC server. Bittorrent reports that I've forward it's port correctly so I know I did it right.
I just...can't...connect to my home machine over the 'net.
