I am using Teamviewer for a while and have noticed that sometimes it doesn't connect to the remotes. Though connection is perfect and rigs are mining quite well.

Is there better alternative to the TV? And do those connection problems depend on the moon phase or I'm just doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for helping. :)

Maybe your remotes stop mining and go to sleep on inactivity?

what do you mean by "cannot connect"?

do those remotes show as online when you try?

on what OS is the teamviewer server running?

All the rigs are mining and online. And the TV shows them as online. But when trying to connect it requests the route and shows some kind of connection error. Though after few minutes of tries and fails it connects. Every device is connected to the local LAN. All the devices run Windows 7 64bit and never go asleep as this setting is off.

Also I tried to connect with Android during such failure but the result is the same - connection error.

Can it be just some kind of internal problem or a bug of Teamviewer? It's not critical, just annoying issue.

Well, it's not 100% reliable, it has seriously hit me in the gut 2-3 times.

You can set some other solution as a backup, good thing about TV that you do not need to worry about port forwarding in some cases.

TightVnc was a good program, dunno about other software out there today.

LogMeIn was good until they turned in to bastards and pulled the free version without any warning a few days ago.

Thanks all for your replies! :)

And is there any way to remotely observe and control more than one cgminer at once? I know possibilities of CGWatcher. Though it has some issues (e.g. no possibility to control more than one instance at once as different gpu threads may be set in separate cgminer instancies only or quit-and-BSOD issue of some R9 290 gpu's).

For my purposes it would be enough to somehow watch running cgminers' information gathered in one piece and to control them through TV or it's analog if needed.

Guy, how do you do all this stuff? Maybe somebody has found perfect solution to all that?

wow, really?
hamachi too?

imho that decision will bite them in the ass, as userbase diminishes, and there's no new converts without free option users.

They gave me 7 days warning.  No email though.  I logged in to check on one of my systems and saw the $49/year for two computers notice.

Moved everything to teamviewer.  So far so good.  You can run teamviewer client from a usb stick without installing it on your client PC.  ADL works.
You need to install it on your rigs.  Just use their VPN, it works the same as logmein.  Except it is free.

ANUBIS (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=57342.0) seems to be what you are looking for.

I got an email on 1st to say they were pulling the plug on 21st.  The warning on the login page wasn't there on the 20th.
