Specify Advanced Options

Use the Advanced tab to set the bandwidth limiter and compression options for a remote control connection.

Note: Changes that are made in this tab apply only during the current session and are lost if the session is removed.

Follow these steps:

  1. Select the maximum amount of bandwidth from the Bandwidth Limit drop-down list.
  2. Select the compression level from the Compression Strength drop-down list.

    Note: This setting is automatically selected according to the bandwidth limit and connection speed but can be overridden.

  3. Click one of the following:
    Connect

    Attempts to connect you to the host computer after all fields in the dialog are completed.

    Click Power Up

    Attempts to connect you to the host computer using the Wake-on-LAN (WOL) feature if WOL information is available for the specified computer.

    Note: If you click Connect instead of Power Up and the connection fails, the viewer determines the reason for the connection failure. If the connection failed as the host could not be contacted, even though the IP address/DNS name was valid, then the Connection Status message lets you click a link that provides the same functionality as Power Up.

    Note: The Help button is not available when you use the RC Viewer Web Interface.
