Buffalo Technology WZR-RS-G54 user manual Remote Control TightVNC

Remote Control - TightVNC

TightVNC is the recommended Remote Control Software. This icon will appear on any computer on the Network Service List that is running the VNC software. This icon provides a one-click process to obtaining access to the PC.

Installing TightVNC Software for the Desktop: Installing TightVNC is very easy, just insert the CD-ROM that came with your AirStation product and install the software. The on-screen menus will guide you through the setup process.

Non-Windows Platforms: TightVNC utilizes the open-source VNC standard, thus any VNC software will work with the AirStation. Currently only TightVNC and Windows are supported but customers can install other open-source VNC applications for Macintosh, Linux, and other systems. If the server runs on port 5800 then the ‘VNC Remote’ icon will appear on the Network Service List.

Additionally, there are VNC comptible clients for all systems including PalmOS and PocketPC. Thus, with PPTP VPN connection software, a handheld user (PalmOS and PocketPC) could theoretically connect in and control their home or office PC’s from their handheld; assuming the handheld has some sort of internet connection. Buffalo Technology (USA) Inc. does not support users in making VNC work in anything but Windows.
