"Connection failed" error #147

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I can connect and control remotely my pc with my iphone when I am home,
through my home network. 
2. When I try to connect my home pc out of my home LAN (away from my
network), it generates the error: "Connection could not be made to host
[my.routers.ip.here] port 5900"
3. At home, I am behind my router which has static IP. At home using
ultraVNC on my comp and vnsea on my iphone is working smoothly as they're
on same Wi-Fi. When I am not home, I can not reach my pc remotely, that's all.

What version of the product are you using?
on my pc (XP) : UltraVNC Win32 Server 1.0.2 Release.

on my iphone (1.1.2);: Latest version of vnsea.

Please provide any additional information below.

I forwarded tcp and udp ports 5900 for my iphone and pc. I don't know what
I am missing but away from home, I can't do what I can when I'm home.

Any help is wellcome.

I have exactly the same issue, and I know a lot of other people do too. I don't 
think
it is a problem with VNsea, the router or the VNC server. I think it is some 
sort of
problem with the internet service provider. I did a few tests...

1. When connected via EDGE or an outside wifi network, I COULD NOT access my
desktop's VNC server using VNsea. 

2. When my iPhone is connected to my home wifi network, and the IP address in 
VNsea
is set to my PC's local IP address(192.168.1.101), then I can connect with no 
problem.

 I enlisted the help of my friend who lives in a different city and who uses a
different ISP(his is Cox, mine is Comcast). I could connect to my friend's VNC 
server
using VNsea on the iPhone, and he could connect to my desktop's VNC server using
UltraVNC Viewer(he doesn't have an iPhone). That tells me that both of our 
routers
and VNC servers are set up correctly. So that rules out the VNC servers and the
routers as causing the problem. VNsea worked perfectly when I tried to access my
friend's VNC server, so VNsea seems to be working properly on my iPhone. 
The only thing left to blame is the ISP. I don't know what the issue could be, 
but it
seems like the problem lies there. Any input?

iPhone service provider: T-Mobile($5.99 tZones)
Home ISP: Comcast

oh thanks i've almost forgot about this post, it's been quite a time since 
then. However i managed to 
proceed a little with my problem. I can connect my 'ROUTER' when i'm out of my 
home network.the problem 
is here, i can connect to my router but i don't know exactly how to connect to 
my pc which is in wireless 
network behind my ROUTER.
