Ok so plex server is what you need then for easiest use. Other options would be to just vpn in to your network.

You need to sign up for a Plex account and maybe do some port forwarding on your router.

Looks like you'll have to manually set up port forwarding following their instructions here:

Did you set your windows firewall? Because you installed it on your personal computer right.
