title: SQL Server 2008 R2 : remote access with Static ip
body: <p>I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2008 R2 remotely and I have successfully connected my laptop with SQL Server 2008 R2 (server). Now I am using the IP address (dynamic) as server name, as I am in same network. Will it be possible to connect to a SQL Server with static IP?
  If yes, then can I use the static IP with in my home network?</p>
