Trouble connecting

Hi all. I am trying to get my VNC up and running. I tried in the past and
received some good advice but in the final analysis failed to get
something properly configured.

I am using an Actiontec modem
(http://www.qwest.com/dslhelp/modems/gt701/index.html#configuration) on
both ends. I have set up static IP addresses on all machines and have port
5900 forwarded like this,

The setup configuration screen asks for a port rang so I put:
5900-5900 TCP 192.168.0.250 	for first machine
5901-5901 TCP 192.168.0.251	for second machine

VNC works at the subnet level if that is the right way to say it. When I
go to gotomyvnc.com it says:
xxx.xxx.x.xxx is accepting connections on Display 0 (TCP port 5900).
xxx.xxx.x.xxx is not responding on Display 1.

I am using no-ip for my dynamic router address. xxxxxx.no-ip.info
The error message I get when I try to connect from the office is:
Unable to connect to host: connection timed out (10060)
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. -Jeff
