There is no "web interface" for VPN, it's a type of connection. What happens is that you create a virtual tunnel to access your home network. Once your are connected to your home network, you can access files from a computer that is on and is sharing files.

You will have to setup the VPN connection on your laptop. I'm not sure how it's done in windows, but for OS X it's built in.


You might want to check out Dropbox. It's a seamless file synchronization service. With it you can sync files to multiple computers and you access them from the web. It's really great.
