On my router at home - I configured my ip forwarding correctly so that I can
remote desktop to my house.

However; I have a 2nd computer I also want to be able to remote to- and am
not quite sure how to do it. Since I remote offsite with my comcast main IP
such as (24.1.x.x) that number never changes.

My workaround thusfar has been to romote to the one machine - then remote
from there onto the 2nd machine - but that ties up both computers at home
and of course locks out anyone else from using it.

What can I do?

I found answer here - you use port numbers such as 24.19.x.x:3389 for first
computer - then something like 24.19.x.x:3390 for 2nd computer...and so
on...

Yes, this is one of solutions. Another option is VPN into the network and then access any resources you want to.
