John, The 10.1.x.x address is a LAN IP address, while the 220.240.x.x address is the Internet IP address allocated to your router by your ISP. If you have a NAT router that the VNC server computer is connected to then you'll need to configure the router to forward connections on port 5900 through to the server.
