I’m going to be away from home for a few weeks and would like to access my computer (LMDE) while I’m away. Remote desktop connection would be ideal, just file transfer would be acceptable.
Is a VPN necessary, or can port forwarding be good enough for a one time use?
What software/networking recommendations do you have?


I have a mango but its kind of showing its age, what’s a decent modern one these days?
Just get one of their latest models. They’re all solid. Whatever is in your budget.
Decided to go with the mango 2, didn’t even know there was a second one now.
Can’t argue against going with what you know :D
