Access To My LAN Office Network From Any Location by abrahambest(m): 7:10am On May 12, 2019 |
Hey guys, please I need assistance with this. I have setup a LAN for an office and I need to be able to access the same network remotely. Any ideas on how to go about this please? I am willing to pay anyone with a working solution to this issue please. |

Do you have a firewall ? There are various ways you can gain access especially through your firewall. What kind of firewall do you have installed. |

It's just windows firewall. Here is what the problem is exactly. I have developed a software using mysql database. The database is installed on a computer which acts as the server. Other computers in the network are able to connect to same database. Now, I want to be able to also connect to the same database even when I m not physically connected to the network from a remote location. |

abrahambest: Port forwarding can be done. Who is your ISP? |
Re: Access To My LAN Office Network From Any Location by abrahambest(m): 8:00am On May 12, 2019 |
ifex370:MTN. I have an MTN 4g LTE router but it seems the port forwarding settings are not complete. I have tried that option B4. |

Wanted to go for another router (Swift) but the ISP isn't available at that location. Could you recommend another router |

abrahambest: Keep a system on standby 247 and use team viewer. That's the only other option I can think of 1 Like |

abrahambest: Where is your location. |
Re: Access To My LAN Office Network From Any Location by abrahambest(m): 8:24am On May 12, 2019 |
Auchi, Edo state |
Re: Access To My LAN Office Network From Any Location by abrahambest(m): 8:25am On May 12, 2019 |
ifex370: I thought of that as well but its not just one user that needs to access the database from a remote location. Other people want to access too |
Re: Access To My LAN Office Network From Any Location by abrahambest(m): 8:27am On May 12, 2019 |
I only need to have remote access so I can use same database in the lan. There's a front end software that needs to connect to that database which has to be run from any remote computer |

Re: Access To My LAN Office Network From Any Location by abrahambest(m): 11:50am On May 12, 2019 |
dragnet: Thanks, I will try this option |

abrahambest:quick tip: Make sure you setup your firewall rules properly, and that your network is not vulnerable before making it public. I may exploit it. xD 2 Likes |

Very simple......do ip and port forwarding. Forward the ip address of the computer running the application and open the port. 2nd option, get a static ip from ur isp. Den configure vpn l2tp, pptp etc on ur router. Den set up vpn client on ur laptop. Den u can access the app anywhere. Any1 u want. 2 Likes |
