I've not seen any problems with spreadsheet/table calculations in org and use it extensively.  I don't use remote access generally however.

In any case, one very nice feature of org tables is you can see exactly how and what it calculates when you ask it to.  Turn on debugging by "C-c {" (org-table-toggle-formula-debugger) and you can see all the information you should need to identify what, if anything, is going wrong.

Turn off debugging with the same key sequence.
