How to restrict remote access to a specific IP?

Fledgling

I have had the three router Zyxel NR5103ev2 for a while now and am very happy with its performance. I have a PC sat on the LAN which I require to administer remotely using SSH.

I have some understanding of what I need to do, but can't for the life of me figure out how to configure it.

At the moment the PC updates dyndns, so I can access my network remotely by name. An incoming port, 2424 is router to the specific PC, but it is getting lots of login attempts whenever I have SSH enabled. 

As I only want to be able to connect remotely from my office, which has a static IP. I thought I should be able to do it using the Access Control tab, but it doesn't seem to filter anything.

I just need to be able to port forward 2424 but ONLY if it comes from my office's IP address. That way I can leave SSH running and can block attempted logins from unauthorised sources.  Can anyone help?
