Remote Desktop

by patnev2 . Updated 5 years ago

I cannot find any straightforward instructions on how to use remote desktop that I can understand. I know it’s only a few simple steps. For example, one tutorial I found says to open the remote desktop app and enter the ip address of the target computer. So, it says to enter the ipv4 address which happens to be 192.168.1.10. (??) This sounds ridiculous to me as this would be the same ip address of a zillion other computers. Doesn’t there have to be some prefix containing the modem/router info? I’m pretty sure if I enter 192.168.1.10 from another country my pc at home isn’t going to come up! Where can I find REAL detailed step-by-step instructions that eliminate the guesswork?
