Part 1 Router and Host Setup
PC Anywhere can connect home and office computers together
to share files over a secure connection to give you access anytime
day or night 24/7/365. Setup consists of setting up both a host
computer and a remote computer. First we will set up the router
and then the Host computer.
INSTALL pcAnywhere on both computers. Run live update by opening
program and clicking on Help > LiveUpdate.
Router Setup
To access router settings open a browser window and type
in 192.168.1.1 in the address bar. The default password for the
router is admin and nothing for the user name.
Find your ip address (usually located under the status tab). Write
this number down. You will need it in Part 2 of this tutorial.
Now click on
port range to set your ports at 5631 and 5632. Be sure
to enable ports. These
ports are located under the
Applications & Gaming tab on a Linksys router. Save
settings and close browser window. You are now ready to configure
pcAnywhere.
Host Computer Setup

Click on Add Host. When widow below opens make sure TCP/ip is checked.
Next click on the Settings tab. Check the Launch with Windows box
if yoou want pcAnywhere to launch when your computer is stsrted.
Make sure the rest of the settings look like the window below.
Click on the Callers tab to add a caller. The caller will be the
