Default Re: Remote computer set up or vpn service?

1) it is extremely easy to set up, but you have to play poker through a remote desktop interface. You have to find a hosting company in sweden that supplies windows servers (that you trust). You'll have to secure that box the same way you secure your home box.

2) vpns are usually preferred cause you can keep using the same computer with the same PT databases and very little extra setup. I would avoid ANY vpn service that does not give you a dedicated static IP. You don't want to share an IP with someone hacking, spamming, or trying to commit bank fraud (which is common on vpns like findnot). I would say VPN is more secure with less work on your end if you go with a service, but remote computer could be just as secure and all done by you.
