sounds like u are accessing ur computers ip since it works thru usb...try the suggestion to get no-ip to setup a static host..

this is the post that helped me access. i remember going thru the steps...first i was thinking it wouldn't work bc i got no response, then applied some of the installation steps trying to follow to a closer 't'...first worked thru usb....more configs then it worked thru wifi...used the no-ip and finally figured i needed to setup a static host thru the acct.....able to get thru over GPRS once mcafee trust settings opened up all the way

a few things tho, i had to connect to weather or email right before running the prgm...and also soft resets were sometimes necessary as the program sometimes hung with my phone...might be different tho with your configs...but overall i loved it and found it to be super-responsive and fast...

thanks again Mr. Sanjay for a great prgm!!

Notice: Connect to your PC from anywhere using Remote Touch.

Just clarifying that Remote Touch lets you connect to your server PC from anywhere as long as your mobile have either WiFi access, GPRS, EDGE, 3G, ED-VO or anything other internet connection. Obviously your PC also needs to be accessible anywhere on internet as well.

I can only give a basic guide (not very detailed) as the steps really depend on each person.

1. If you use a router, you need to enable "port forwarding" to allow traffic from outside your router through to your Remote Touch Server machine port (Port 3230 unless you changed it from the default). Searching on google and using your router name & model should get some useful results.

; I enabled port forwarding, but my google search to setup port forwarding recommending changing to static ip. This was tough with my network and carrier and I believe the reason for steps 3/4.

(So you need to setup your router so that all traffic coming in at port 3230 needs to go to your Remote Touch Server machine's local ip address. (i.e the IP address you see in the INSTALL.BAT file).

; which i believe is 192.168.1.1 thru most routers

2. You may need to configure your firewall(s) to allow this traffic from outside your PC.

; I had to open McAfee and set ALL the way to OPEN trust

3. I recommend using a free DNS agent like No-IP (there should be other free ones too). Just go to their website and register. It is really straight forward, they will detect your external IP address.

[BigSniperBoy mentioned to make sure your "Host Type" is set to DNS Host (A) for No-IP. Thanks BigSniperBoy !]

4. You will also need to download and install their DNS client on your Remote Touch Server machine, so no-ip always knows your machine's current external IP address.

; which establishes a site that produces ur static ip u will access over GPRS or w/e way u talk to web

5. Once you have your DNS name (e.g. xxxxx.no-ip.biz) you can use that and enter it into your Remote Touch phone when it is connected to the internet (using either WiFi access, GPRS, EDGE, 3G, ED-VO or anything other internet connection) as shown below.

; which required me to connect by first checking email or weather just before prgm launch

Once you set this up, you don't have to do any of this again !!

If you got this working, congratulations !
