to give you an example, this is my current setup:
Desktop ( 192.168.0.106)
Real vnc server
accept connections on port 5900, 3600
Access control is disabled
Router
Firewall:
ALLOW RealVNC1
SOURCE = *,*
DEST = LAN,192.168.0.106
PORT = 5900
So then on my laptop, i go to real vnc viewer
Connect to : 192.168.0.106
My laptop required no other configurations. Windows firewall shouldn't even ask.

This is what i have questions on
Firewall:-(router or windows)?
SOURCE = *,* - (what do you mean by source is that a firewall thing)?
DEST = LAN,192.168.0.106- What you mean by dest? and whats that? another firewall thing?

Firwall = router firewall
SOURCE = *,*
SOURCE = SOURCE,IP RANGE
Source means where is the connection coming from? In this case ive allowed ALL WAN and ALL ips. * means wildcard, so all is permitted.
If i wanted to make it lan only, i would have it set like
SOURCE = LAN,*
If i wanted to make it ONLY one WAN IP
SOURCE = WAN,99.99.99.99
Keep in mind the configuration stuff is different on most routers, im using a dlink. This configuration was all done in a graphical interface so when i say "SOURCE=" doesn't mean i wrote that, but its what the values are
DEST is the opposite of source. Where is the data going ? I dont want to open a port for all IPs on my lan, so i have only my desktop IP set
DEST=LAN,192.168.0.105
if i wanted to make this work for ALL clients on my local network
DEST=LAN,*
