ReverseConnect Options

Start Listening

Clicking the 'Start Listening' button will instruct the Beyond Remote Console to start listening for connections from Beyond Remote Hosts.  

Stop Listening
Once the Start Listening Button has been selected, it will change to 'Stop Listening'.  To stop accepting incoming connections, select 'Stop Listening'.


Active Connections

Once the 'Start Listening' button has been selected, the 'Active Connections' window will show the incoming connections.  Beyond Remote is able to accept multiple incoming connections (only limited by your bandwidth).  Select the connection you wish to manage, and 'Select an Action'.

Select an Action

Once you have selected the connection you wish to manage, click on the 'Select an Action' button and you will see the following four options
  • Control Desktop
  • File Transfer
  • Chat
  • Disconnect

    Select the option you wish to perform and the function will work just like a standard Beyond Remote connection.

    Listen Port

    The 'Listen Port' is the port on your router that will accept the incoming connection.  In order to use the ReverseConnect feature, you will need to open the 'Listen Port' on your router (defaults to port 5425).  If you have multiple computers on your network, you will need to forward that port to your computer's internal IP address.  For detailed directions on how to do this for your make and model of router, visit Beyond Remote's page on Port Forward.com.
