You'd need the desktop app to sign-up an account and approve your IP in the database firewall. Normally I only open the desktop app briefly when I need to fix the firewall. It tends to occasionally expire or something.
And that's where my problem is. I can't register with Celestal ADB Desktop. I have tried it several times for weeks, but never get a registration email. I've already made a request on the github page of the desktop, but even this hasn't been answered for days. Is the project still alive at all?
@ThomasW69 THB, it doesn't seem to be. And if you can't create an account, unfortunately you'll be unable to use this.
