submix8c Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 WOW! How about Remote Desktop, supplied with the operating Systems!Works for me! It's also very useful for "work at home", provided Management approves Administrator to allow it on your Work PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarun Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 VNC can't control Internet, your router has the settings usually to control times people can access the Internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fun4now Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 my router dose not control anything, its just a switch point. i have dial up, so the router just passes ICS from the desktop into a wireless signal for my laptop to access.if i had cable or DSL the router would control INTERNET, but with dial up i need the desk-top to dial out for the net.
