Why is it so difficult to connect?

[philliec]

I have two houses with AHP and MyHouse. One house has a proxy server setup for the internet. This one never works with MyHouse. The other house without the proxy server for internet works great. Therefore, I use GoToMyPc and it works great. I found it much faster than Logmein, but there is a monthly fee for GoToMyPc. For my purposes of monitoring my vacation home it iw worth it.
