If you have problems with blocked ports you can also change VNC's default
ports, on restricted networks i set tightvnc http port to 80 and main port
to 443; since they are default ports used by Internet sites, it shouldnt be
blocked (i hope). Also you can use hamachi to help you punch a hole thru any
basic firewalls if your not familiar setting up a tunnel (same method used
by P2P) and then connect using the hamachi VPN IP instead of the dynadns
domain name. Finally if you suspect there is bandwith capping in placed, UDP
to TCP tunnels can be used but its a hell to set up in my experience. See
http://www.winton.org.uk/zebedee/manual.html on how to create tunnels.

The reason I stated so is that the person asking will connect to a home
based system which in most cases utilizes a personal home DSL account
and not a commercial or industrial account. In which case, depending on
the provider, the person may be breaking certain areas of the contract.
Plus assuming that it is a home pc which generally would be used by
people in the household then the speed would also be affected. And as
far as connecting through tightVNC, based on experiences by people I
know of which are using a home DSL account, they noticed that ports are
being blocked by their provider upon use of VNC in order to manage the
bandwidth.
Therefore the safest possible as i see it is connecting through ssh.

He said its via DSL so use of TightVNC is possible, i can access my
office pc which unfortunately runs windows using 56kbs DSL from a cafe
near my house, you will have to use tightvnc encoding to lessen the
lag, other encodings like zlib didnt go well in my experience.

Access through VNC too slow.
Suggest using SSH instead.
