I'll have a close look at your proposal.

Hi,

Thank you for the replies.
My pc is running Mageia5.
I don't understand how a VPN connection could help solving my problem. Could

Some VPNs (OpenVPN for example) can be configured to have a fixed
private IP address at the remote end, even though the connecting
public addresses will vary with your location.   If you set a
point-to-point tunnel VPN up on your laptop and your backuppc server
(or another host or the router on your home network) then backuppc can
be configured to use the end point address as its target, and if you
don't want to wait for a scheduled backup to run you can also use it
to access the web interface.   A good starting point would be looking
at point-to-point configurations of OpenVPN.    You'll need either a
stable IP address for your home network or at least something that
will work with a dynamic DNS service.
