Using PCAnywhere...

My Setup

MN-500 Wireless Base Station
Laptop (wireless)
Desktop (ethernet)
DHCP enabled.

I also have a desktop at work that is not connected to
the same LAN.

I want to be able to use Symantec PCAnywhere from my work
computer and connect to my Laptop and desktop at home. I
have no problems connecting from my home pc's to work,
but I cannot establish a connection from work to my home
pc's.I have disabled all firewalls and VPN's. I figure I
have to use either MAC filtering or Port forwarding but
the documentation does not explain these features. Thank
you for your help.

So:

Home PC's -> Work = No Problem
Home PC's -> Home PC's = No Problem
Work -> Home PC's = Unable to connect

You need to use persistent port forwarding. I'm not sure what ports or
port ranges.

Try forwarding ports 5631 through 5632 to the internal IP
address of your computer.
