When connecting to the office from home with windows 8, wireless access and direct access my PC freezes up. When using a direct line from my router i have no problems. Working from the office with wireless also gives no problems.

Please write to us with the following details.

Do you have any third party security software installed on your computer?
Do you get any error message when your computer freezes up?

I would suggest you to check the event viewer and provide the details at the time of failure.

Event Viewer is an advanced tool that displays detailed information about significant events on your computer. It can be helpful when troubleshooting problems and errors with Windows and other programs.

To get to event viewer in Windows 8:
Go to the Start Screen. Type in Event Viewer.
This will bring up the Event Viewer box. Click to open the event viewer.
In the left pane, expand out Windows Logs.

Click on Application log. Highlight the first event in the log and use your arrow keys to scroll down. Most of your event will be Information. You may see Yellow Warnings or Red Errors. If you see a red error, you can double click on it to bring it up and copy the contents to a document. Copy the complete error message and paste it, so we check the complete error message.

You could face this issue when there is any third party security software installed on your computer or if you have any updates pending to be installed.
