Hello all, I'm in hospital and I need to use RU to connect to my office pc. But outbound calls to non standard ports are blocked by hospital security/firewall.
How Can I bypass this?
Is there a way to change RU to use Port 80, for example?

Hello Tony,

Thank you for your message.

You can change the port to a preferred one when using Direct Connection or Internet-ID Connection via self-hosted RU Server. Please note that in case if you want to use Direct Connection when connecting to a remote Host located outside of your network, you might need to set up some port forwarding rules as described here.

Let us know if you have more questions.
