Have had my airport extreme with a connected disk/flash drive for about a week now, Can access the drives from my mac on my local network, but can't for the life of me get it working outside of my network. (access files from a remote location)

Have tried loads of guides on youtube and google and from here, dyndns etc.

Anyone having or had similar issues?

I access mine via MobileMe "Back To My Mac", within Airport set up you enable it and then I can see my hard drives at home while I am on the road as part of my network. Damn I hope they do not eliminate that feature with iCloud, it is nice to remote manage my kids Mac when on the road, access our media drive I have connected to the TC via USB, etc.

See I haven't been able to get this working either, If I connect through a different network then I go through finder to my airport extreme, It simply does not connect..

I also would have liked to grab files from any computer(probably a mac), From the drive connected to my airport extreme.

Or use my laptop to grab files from that drive (on a different network).
