goldenbuddha is on a distinguished road
did you set your router/firewall to have DHCP turned on? If yes, then more or less you are protected from a IP probes, since all the people outside see is your routers IP (from the ISP) and have no direct connection to your system.

But in order for you to be able to connect to your computer, you need to find out which port the remote desktop app you are using uses, and open it up in your router/firewall and have it forward to your PC.
