I don't have wireless switched on in the Droid, but 'm able to connect to my PC

to access the PC (Yes its ON and I can access it through another PC) I get the 
error message: "VNC Connection Failed". 

Any way this can be fixed!?

When connecting over 3g instead of wifi, you need to use your pc's public 
internet address.

Hi! I am using the PC's public internet address (something like 29.1.151.x) to 
access from my Droid. I have port-forwarding and everything setup in the 
correct order and I can access my PC from a remote location through another 
computer with that IP and port setting but not through my Droid over 3G. 

And even when 'm home, I don't have my WiFi enabled, but it connects to my PC 
over 3G.
