Answers:
want to configure the router to forward the port to your home PC. (port 3389)
afterwards you involve to connect to your external IP address (from your ISP) and not the internal one provided by the router.
Install UltraVNC (free) on both systems and configure your router for port forwarding at home.
Go to
http://portforward.com/routers.htm... for a guide on your specific router.
Make sure you turn rotten or configure your software firewalls so they do not block the port you choose to connect to your system through.
If you want to use Windows Remote Desktop, you can set that up as ably. I would HIGHLY recommend you use the UltraVNC and put a obedient password on it. Dont leave your job it on the evasion port 5900, fine-tuning it to something else to be immobilize.
Here is how to setup the PC.

You also own to forward port 3389 (or one you choose) to the laptop you want to remote into. If you don't own a firewall on the computer, that's it. If you own a firewall you will own to allow that port within at hand also.
