If you're not given permission by your companies IT staff to deliberately circumvent what is likely a network firewall then we're not allowed to assist. It goes against the forums Community Standards.

 

But a VPN may do something for you.

I have been trying to access my home network (since i have a NAS and Parsec setup) but literally every time i try to connect to anything at home, I find it is blocked. My IT staff may have realized that my IP is frequently attempted to be connected to on their network, and subsequently blocked it, so I'm not sure what else I can do. Does anyone know what I can do?

Why Are We Still Here? Just to Suffer?

How exactly are you trying to access your home network? RDP? VPN? SSH? FTP? HTTP?

Most likely they just block certain types of traffic externally on your works firewall.
