Default Remote Access?

Are any of you using remote access to your home or work computer?

I'd like to access my office PC while I'm out of town.

Issues:

Cox using dynamic IP addressing

I have 5 PC's behind a Barricade Router

Recommendations?

Thanks!

DDNS will let you get by the IP address, the Router's firewall can be
configured to allow the (one) PC you want to access to be able to
receive the ports.

I've done this in the past (I do have fixed IP, but DDNS does solve that
issue) and it worked.
