I hope that makes sense. Any suggestions if you think I can do this better?
All advice appreciated.

Use NoIP for your dynamic ip. Don't use the free service, just pay the $14 per year and save yourself the headache. The free services now require you to keep resetting your account each month and that will drive you nuts. It will happen at a time when your not able to do so. Just pay the really cheap fee and it will remain active. You can use a website called CAN YOU SEE ME to test if your ports are open and set your port forwarding in your modem.
I use NoIP to allow me to log into my game security cameras from anywhere in the world on my IPhone. You have to use one of these services as your home IP will change over time if you do not have a fixed IP. Most home services only have dynamic IP's
I think you may still have my number Paul. If you do just give me a call or PM Me. Happy to assist if you have question... (Well I will do my best anyway)
