So here's what i got
Im using a router and so the router has a different ip addy for the computer than the computer actually uses.
So for example my router has my ip address as 192.168.0.2 and when i go to say ipchicken it says 67.41.247.8 I have already told my router to open a port for it but when i go to connect it just times out.
My question is for the host do i need to have 192.168.0.2/67.41.247.8 and for the user do i need to have the usernameofrouter/usernameofcomputer and rouerpassword/admin password? im just having a heck of a time and i have looked through everything i can think of. i know someone out there has it working and i just wanted to know how!!!! Any help is appreciated!!

What everyone else said..BUT if RDP is what you want then here is your answer..
192.168.0.2 <- anything that starts with 192.168.x.x is LOCAL aka when on same network...67.41.247.8 looks more like your remote IP...
Now, judging that your connecting fine via wifi but having issues via remotely its most likely tour router firewall..you would have to also open up the port on your router and port forward that port to the appropriate pc..or setup a DMZ for it..
