1) It is for all Outlook versions if you want to create an Exchange
connection from home to work. First you'll need to be on your companies
network. This is done by either dial-up or a VPN connection. Other solutions
are to use POP3 or IMAP instead although in most cases Outlook Web Access (a
webinterface quite like Outlook) will do fine. OWA is part of Exchange. Ask
your administrator whether and how you can reach the webserver from home.
2) This isn't your problem. The problem is that other Internet traffic uses
the VPN as well. You can change this behaviour in Control Panel-> Internet
Options-> tab Connections-> select the VPN connection-> button Settings;
here you can configure your local proxy server or proxy server from your ISP
to be used for web traffic.
3) Your tablet doesn't either. I doubt that you can connect to it from home.
It works when you get into the WiFi range of your company. They probably
have a wireless accesspoint there and configured your tablet to auto logon
when in range.
4) You'll need VPN and be able to resolve the Exchange server name by both
IP and name. If this doesn't work or resolving is slow you can add the
internal name and internal IP address of the Exchange server to your
HOSTS-file.
