dropped connections

Post by buddyclm »

I am using SC to connect to different computers. My computer is running XP Pro, and the other computers are running XP home and XP Pro. I can connect to the other computers with no problem. Afte about 5 minutes or less the SC view locks up and then closes on me. Any ideas on what could be causing this or how I can fix it would be appreciated. Thanks.

main issue, unstable network or wireless connection

for limit this issue
you can force vncviewer not switching between type of connection from command line or add it this command line to vncviewer shortcut

"%programfiles%\UltraVNC\vncviewer.exe" -quickoption 4 -listen 5500

Can you tell me where I am supposed to put in that command line? I looked in the setup information and couldn't find it. Thanks.

or add it this command line to vncviewer shortcut

create shortcut of vncviewer with example name "vncviewer listen low speed" without quote,
right click on the shortcut just made and select properties

target: "%programfiles%\UltraVNC\vncviewer.exe" -quickoption 4 -listen 5500
Start in: "%programfiles%\UltraVNC\vncviewer.exe"

OK
