Hello Mario,

Direct connection is always a better choice because no mediation occurs and (in theory) the perceived speed and responsiveness should be better.

However, the Internet ID connection should work anyway except only rare occasions where the network environment on the Host side is extremely strict. Please, note that even with the Internet ID connection the Host should be able to communicate with our mediation servers on the Internet, that is - establish an outgoing connection at certain port. Oftentimes, especially in corporate environments, all outgoing ports are blocked except those used commonly, such as port 80 and 443.

I'm more than sure that if you set up your own mediation server, set it up to use port 443 and then point the Host in question at that mediation server and port - everything will work.

I might be mistaken however in that it's a port issue and not something else, in which case it's recommended to check this Knowledge Base article that might help to troubleshoot the issue.
 
Let us know if you need any assistance. Thanks.

Hi John,

I've got a reply from our developers that the upcoming version 5.5 will be released with this bug fixed.

Thanks!

Hi John,

As far as I can see, this issue is registered in our bug tracking system. I'll ask the developers about when it might be fixed.

Yes, and we appreciate it :) After all that's why we have a public forum on our own website (unlike one very popular remote support program that you know of)  ;)

Thank you for your suggestions. However, this one along with the other two posted recently (patch management and service desk) require shifting from pure remote access solution to a more general (and more expensive) IT management software. Although we do consider expanding in that direction at some point in the future, this may not be our immediate priority.

Thank you for the suggestion! However, we cannot promise anything definitive as of when we implement this feature request. Maybe at some point in the future, after we implement more urgent requests/features.

How can you tell what the user is... For instance my user is "HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2567007518-49307528-3885852609-1425"

why isn't it the current user name?

And is there a easier way to tell?

Added to wishlist.

Try to temporarily disable GFI Cloud Antivirus or add Remote Utilities (Viewer and Host) folders to exclusion list.

Is there a way to speed up the response time when connected to a computer.  I was connected to a computer in my own network and the response time was very slow.

Common reasons are bad router/network or AV/Firewall software that interferes with packets sent between Viewer and Host.

E.g. see this topic https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/forums/forum1/98 . The topic started responded lately that it was a router issue.

This topic was moved to the technical support forum.
