Hello Pribadi,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, the Host logs have been improved starting version 7 - Host log now displays the originating IP address of the Viewer, as well as the date and time when the remote session was started. You don't need to enable any additional settings as the log files already include this information by default - just make sure that you use Host and Viewer of the latest version (as of this writing it's 7.1.2.0).

In addition, please see our HIPAA compliant statement here as well as our Remote Access for Healthcare page here.  

Hope that helps.

Hello Deividas,

Thank you for the clarification.

In this case, could you please try upgrading your Host to the latest version 7.1.2.0 following this step-by-step guide and see if it's possible to connect after the upgrade? Pleas make sure to upgrade your Viewer as well, so that there's no version mismatch between Host and Viewer.

Hope that helps.

Hello Douglas,

Thank you for your patience.

I've checked on this with our developers and they have let me know that, unfortunately, the slow file transfer speed can be caused by many factors.
However, the File Transfer connection mode will be optimized and improved in our future updates, so that the file transfer speed will increase as well.

Hope that helps.

Hello James,

Thank you for your message.

This persistent notification appears if you're connected to a remote machine using Internet-ID connection from a Viewer registered with a Free license key or in a trial mode.
Please note that this notification banner cannot be removed. However, the notification is not displayed for Direct connection or for commercial license users.
For more information please also see this page.

In addition, please note that we will modify the connection banner, so that it can be visible on the Host's side only (i.e. you won't see it in your Viewer's connection window) and also we'll add the ability to pick the corner in which the notification will be shown. Hopefully, these improvements will be available in one of the next updates, however, we cannot provide any specific ETA on them yet.

Hope that helps.

Hello Deividas,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please let us know what version of RU Server do you use? Do you have both Host and Viewer upgraded to version 7.1.2.0?
In addition, please note that I've slightly modified your message - please do not publish the log files on the forum in the future as they might contain some personal information.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Max,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, the Internet-ID feature in version 6 of Remote Utilities is no longer available for free or trial users. Please try upgrading your installation to the latest version 7.1.2.0 following this step-by-step tutorial. This way you can continue using Remote Utilities for free. In version 7 we've also improved/fixed a lot of previously known issues and added some new features as well, you can see the full list here.

Hope that helps.

Hello George,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please let us know the following information:
1. What version of Remote Utilities is installed on Host's and Viewer's sides of the connection?
2. Do you use our public servers for Internet-ID connection or is it your custom self-hosted RU Server?

In addition, please refer to this Internet-ID connection troubleshooting guide and see if the solutions provided there might help to resolve the issue.

Looking forward to your reply.
