I configured my pc to be remotely controlled using the tablet, using rdp. The software im using is parallels. Also, tried the ms remote desktop app. Both works wonders over lan. But i want to access my pc when im outside, through internet.
I know there are apps like teamviewer and splashtop. But they require me to install a server app in the pc. Paralells dont. So i configured a no-ip host, port forwarding, ddns in my router and firewall in my pc, to accept incoming remote desktop connections through internet. But it seems the only way to do it in android is by installing a server app in the pc. Which i think is useless because i already have everything configured to do it without extra software and i dont want to create a teamviewer account.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Can I reach to the files of my notebook with Wi-Fi smartphone in my wireless area? I want to perform a network between my smartphone and notebook with Wi-Fi network. Is it possible?
No on smartphone you cannot access files that are on your notebook.
Try a VNC (easy).
Start with something like this: TightVNC (free) as a server on your notebook and .Net VNC Viewer (free) as a client on your phone; read and play.
There is lag time in rendering on the little screen; not to mention that it's a little screen (you might tire of looking at it and/or navigating).
Another good client is VNC+; it worked best for me among the clients that I tried but there is a cost.
You will be able to access your notebook via any Wi-Fi connection provided that your server is running and connected to the internet.
Good Luck.
FTP is a good solution too.
Install a FTP server (I use free GuildFTPd) on your laptop, and create a user with access to all drives or folders of interest. Make sure that no acces from the internet is possible if not neede for security reasons. Use a strong password.
Use Resco Explorer or Total Commander as client. This way you can download or upload files from your laptop.
I was able to find vnc viewer. Is there vnc server so I can remote from my PC to my phone? I tried remote desktop with no success.
Thanks

Whats your operating system? vista, xp? if ether of both make sure the "alow remote connections" is enabled , here's the link for the ppc vnc, also make sure that in remote desktop your filling the "computer name" with your PC's ip address , personally id recommend using remote desktop is the best remote desktop access program for wm(its from M$ of course lol), the only con is that it can only be used on a network, other than that is perfect =D .

I wanted to know if any of you guys use a VNC client to control your desktop or any remote pc from the topaz (I have the HTC pure) I havent tried the inbuilt remote desktop yet as I have XP home so wanted to know what you guys prefer to use for this. Please give me some suggestions.
Xp home doesnt have a RDP server, just a client, so you will have to run VNC server and use a vnc client to use it from the phone
yes I knw Xp home doesnt... but what free vnc client do you sugggest I use for the phone is there a free vnc client out there for windows mobile ? I searched but no success
yuo need VNC server AND client if you want to connect to XP home...

just seach for free vnc client when you've downloaded and installed a server
Actually what I found best is to use Hamachi.
Hamachi was bought by LogMeIn and is a program that puts your devices on a virtual network by a static IP. They have a mobile version for PPC that works great.
Load Hamachi on both phone and PC... then use whatever services you want as if you are physically connected. Remote desktop, file share, etc.
thanks player911 I will try hamachi and let you know
Anyone know of a remote desktop app that you can write a message on the screen from anywhere? I'm talking about when I'm at work I can make a message appear without a special app. I have a Mac if that helps. Thanks for any help.

Make a message appear where?? What?? I'm lost...
But to remote deskop I personally use Real VNC server on my pc and connect to it from Android with Remote VNC Pro using No-Ip DNS service. Works flawlessly, Remote VNC Free doesn't work as good as the Pro version.
Anywhere, just to be able to communicate.

Log me in is a popular remote desktop program.
Perhaps that will help?
Does any one know of an app that would allow me to view/control my desktop via android device over USB?
Another alternative would be an app, similar to idisplay, that would allow me to either mirror the primary display or use the device as the primary display.
team viewer will let you do it without USB... not sure otherwise...

I don't know of any USB, but a VNC viewer on your phone (Remotix is my favorite) and a VNC server on your computer would work, besides Team viewer.

Remote Web Desktop
I use Remote Web Desktop all the time
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwibmV0LnhkZXZlbG9wLnJtIl0.
It has a whole web interface to access stuff on your phone... such as sending/receiving texts, etc. It also has a VNC server built in so you can do that as well if you find the need.
Logme in is awsome for that i use it all the time
