It the computer is using a pubilc IP number, then that is all you need unless there is a firewall that is blocking port 3389. If the computer is using a private number, then there is no way to do it.

If you have a private IP where you are, then there is no way to get a public one where you are. The only way to make RDP available on a machine that has a private number is to set up a reverse NAT and a port forwarder on the router/firewall that connects to the internet. In that case, it would be the router that connects all of moorehead to the internet.

You should just be able to type in the ip address of the remote computer.
