For a secure connection, you need to create a VPN connection from your home network to your office network.

Here's a list of a few ways you can do this:
1. Setup an IPsec tunnel on your firewall
2. Use a Router to Router VPN from your office to your home
3. Install an SSL VPN or VPN concentrator

You can use Attachmate Reflection for the Web as another solution so you don't need to have client access installed.

There could be more involved then just connect to the internet and then your AS/400. If you have any sort of network security chances are your AS/400 is behind a firewall. You should try to find local assistance to get your pc on the internet. You will also most likely need to get who ever manages the AS/400 to help you get through any protections that are in place as well as tell you how you are allowed to access it from your home.
