Using wifi that Block non standard ports

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.

Thank you for your message.

Could you please try deleting your Linux Agent fully and downloading the latest Agent file on this page to see if this helps to resolve the issue?

Thank you for your message.

Deleting the old configuration file has simply reset your Viewer settings, so this is why your new configuration file might be less in size. Please feel free to let us know if the issue persists.
