I downloaded the Mocha Lite free App from The App Store earlier and love it.

Both my Macbook and Touch are under the same home wifi network...but would love to be able to access my Macbook when say i'm at school.

How can I do this?
 
really? i always thought both my devices had to be under the same network?

I'm the only one with wifi around here so i'll have to test it out when im out with friends tonight. i'll def. post the results. interesting though. we;ll see.
 
I was at a few wifi network places last night but it took forever trying to connect using the mocha lite VNC app. I'm assuming cause my macbook must've been in sleep mode.

Would there be anyway to wake it up remotely or do i need to leave it on the whole time, in case i'd like to access it when i'm out?

Cause of this I wasn't able to see if it did connect...so i'm still not sure. Anyone have any experience with VNC?
