If I am using Internet ID for logging into a PC that is on my Local Area network, after the connection is made on my 192.168.x.x Lan, does all traffic between the host and viewer stay the LAN?

Hello Severt,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, Remote Utilities has a built-in feature that automatically detects direct route and uses it, if available, instead of Internet-ID connection.  However, if you'd like to make sure that all traffic stays within your LAN and doesn't go to our servers, you can use Direct connection or even configure your own self-hosted RU Server - this can help to ensure that your connection doesn't need to use our public servers at all.

Let us know if you have more questions.
