How can I connect to two android devices when them are not in same local area network?

Closed this issue 9 months ago · 3 comments

Dear Developer

I am writing to confirm that whether the droidVNC supports that has a connection between 2 android devices when they are not in the same local area network?

I think it's necessary for me to have a "VNC repeater" to reach my goal, but I didn't know which "VNC repeater" should I have a try
Could you give me some suggestion?

Thanks a lot

Dear @banboybanban, please use the community chat for future questions :-)

You can follow two approaches:

have both devices dial out from their LAN to a repeater which acts like a rendezvous point
or have the server part exposed to the Internet, see https://github.com/bk138/droidVNC-NG?tab=readme-ov-file#for-accepting-connections-from-outside for this

HTH!

Dear @bk138

So thanks for you instantly reply.
I am able to access to the community chat but I can't login in successfully, so I can't add any comment in community chat. So I have to add comments here and below is my query.

I am trying to establish a VNC repeater and find "Ultra VPN repeater" may be a selection.
I want to know if "Ultra VPN repeater" can work well with droidVNC? Or do you have any other recommended repeater for me?

Thanks

Yes that is pretty much the only one, there's a Linux version as well. The server works with this.
