| Answer= | | Answer= | ||
*In order to do that, you probably first need to subscribe to a [[w:dynamic dns|dynamic dns]] provider in order to map your IP address to a unique domain name that stays the same. Then you need to configure your router so it forwards UDP port 9777 and TCP port 8080 (depending on your settings) to the machine XBMC is running on. | |||
*'''We strongly advise against this!''' For starters, it opens a door to everyone outside your LAN to your media collection. The basic HTTP Authentication won't protect you against a more sophisticated attack. Then there's the bandwidth. XBMC Remote downloads all artwork locally for caching purpose. Depending on your provider's data plan, this is going to be '''really expensive''' (and slow). So make at least sure you downloaded all covers via WiFi before you go outside. | |||
