How to use your internet connection remotely?

Question

Hello,

I have been in a university residence for a few days now and I have access to the internet via an RJ 45 cable but unfortunately under RENATER... So, internet access is very limited, and I am unable to check my online bank account, my emails, my schedule, and much more...
P2P-type VPNs or CyberGhost should be avoided as they are ineffective.

I have heard here and there that it is possible to use your home connection (point A: at my parents' house) remotely as long as you have internet access (point B: university residence).
So, I wanted to know if there are any tutorials, if there is someone who has done it or knows how to do it, how?

I am not looking to access my computer (point A) remotely but only to access my connection.

I also have a few questions;
- Will the box at point A need to be left on all the time?
- Will this method allow me to bypass RENATER?
- Will the delay be reduced?

There you go, I hope I have been clear in my remarks, and if I have not been, I am open to any clarifications. And I hope to get some answers!

Thank you in advance.

Oh okay, if I understand correctly, I'll need to use the PC at my parents' house to access the connection?
So I'll have to keep that PC constantly turned on, which is unlikely to happen since my parents will turn it off. Not great for the electricity bill...
I skimmed through the link, and it seems to explain things well. I'll give it a try; you never know!

As for the second link, RENATER has already blocked it... But being anonymous (from what I've understood about this software) will really help me bypass this proxy?

Hello,
the method involves creating and using... through a VPN. So this method should also be avoided. The only effective method would be to download the Tor Browser Bundle. However, please note that your speed will be reduced.

First of all, thank you for replying so quickly!

I would still like to know how to create this bridge, even if it involves using a VPN; RENATER can't block everything, I hope...

I've also heard about this software without really knowing what it was about, and of course, I tried to download it from where I am but without success (blocked).
I don't want to take advantage of your kindness, but I would also like you to explain to me in a few words what it consists of.

Thanks again.

I managed to access your Wikipedia link through another means, and indeed it interests me, but it seems complex and not accessible to just any user, am I wrong?

Alright, so I installed Tor, I activated it. Everything is going well, it connects but I waited, as you advised, for it to automatically start Firefox but nothing happened, on the contrary, the Tor program stops without giving any explanation... But I still have access to sites I didn't have permission to before (Outlook, my bank account) so I'm not looking further into the problem, it works and that's the main thing!
A big thank you!

But I have one last question, I don't want to stay in this student room for 5 years looking at my emails or my account, so is it possible through this means (Tor) to download or even play online MMO or FPS games?

@ze-life-of-quent1: I'm not a specialist, but how do you change a game's proxy? From a game file? From Tor?

@juliemiss: Free with huge restrictions... I barely registered and I can't even connect because "my account is no longer valid," thanks anyway.

Problem solved, thanks to a VPN I finally managed to break free from its chains!

For those living in university residences who are in the same situation as I was, use FrozenWay: http://www.frozenway.com/index.php
It's free for a small bandwidth and for €6/month you can have unlimited bandwidth!
Don't abuse this freedom and think of the other users on your network :p

A special thanks to ze-life-of-quent1 who was available for me ^^

Solved!
