Remote Desktop for E61 ?

10 replies · 76,267 views · Started 02 July 2006

Hello all,
I'm new at this, and I have a question that might be pretty simple:
I'm trying to install TSMobile trial on my E61.
I think it installed OK (it did not complain), but when I try to run it, I get the first screen asking to press any key for a couple of second and then it will go away leaving me on the Address Book enpty screen with a (no data) messahe in the middle of the screen...
The help mentions something about configuring the APN but it doesn't say how.
Is this what I'm missing?
I have internet access via my own WiFi or via Fifo internet without any problem.
Any help?

Thanks!!!😊

From the Address Book, Simply hit the left button(options) and select new address. Type in your remote desktop server's dns or ip with your login and password on that computer. When done hit Save and you ll now have an entry to connect to in your Address Book.

Now select Options/Connect and you should be able to connect on your rdesktop server. You should make sure your computer is setup right by reading some remote desktop tutorials. You should also test first from another computer.

Thank you Skaber!

I was missing that little clue at the beginning�
It works, but I find it �not very usable� without having a touch screen or another way of moving the cursor faster...
I used to run NetOP from my Toshiba e800 Pocket PC and it really works well for remote control.

Thanks for your quick help!

We use a Remote Desktop gateway to connect over the internet. Does anyone know if this is supported?
