Layman's terms please
Ok, I have read through many of the discussions so please don't post a link to another thread. What I want to do is be able to remotely connect to my home computers when I go on vacation in a week. I understand how to set up the connection while on the same local network, meaning when we have 2 computers at the same location under the same router I can remotely connect easily. But how to I do it when I am 2,000 miles away. I need very basic step by step help please. I am using windows 7 ultimate.
Do I need to set up a DNS (whatever that is)?
Do I need to use something like gotomypc.com?
Do I need to adjust something?
Please let me know as simply as you possible can. I'm not very computer literate.
