I have that problem as well, but its because my dsl-router doesnt allow connections to the port that vnc uses (port 5900),
it works great whenever I have my laptop at work or so on, but never at home!



You could set your router to do a port forward to allow it to work from the outside. This is a standard feature of most routers. If you do that I would suggest that you choose a higher port and then forward that port to 5900 on the lan. Also if you have more then one pc you cna choose different external ports and forward them to different ports internally to hit each of your different machines.

If you really want to do it right you can setup a reverse secure proxy. http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA027031/orenosp/ This one is free and works like a champ. I use it to access my TIVO remotely.
