[QUOTE="Chadrachman, post: 715182, member: 65403"] Ok...so I feel lame because I figured it out after I posted. I configured everything on my airport correct and it should have worked but I could not figure out why it wouldn't. That is when I found the support page for the Jaadu app. they had much better installation instructions and noted that: [I]"This is only required for 10% of users. If you have a cable or DSL modem between your router and the Internet, you need to do one extra step. Go to your router's setup page (suppose it's 192.168.1.1). You should be able to see its external IP address -- which might be something like 192.168.0.2 with the gateway set to 192.168.0.1. Now the gateway is actually your cable/DSL modem. So go to its setup page, and tell it to put your router (192.168.0.2) on the DMZ. This will make it forward all incoming requests to your router, and your router can in turn forward VNC requests to your VNC server."[/I] I had to enable DMZ for my modem and BAM...I was up and running! From what I am reading on reviews this program is better (which is probably why it costs a lot more). If anyone has been having this problem this is good information since the Mocha install instructions mention nothing about enabling DMZ. [/QUOTE]
