In the last week or so, I have had problems connecting to my VPS from RDP on the iphone.

Has anyone else had any problems (it sort of hangs, with a grey screen)

Anyone use any other software to connect etc ? I have tried Logmein, but, its not as good as RDP used to be.

I struggle with RDP if phone is connected to WIFI but fine over phone data.

I use remotix to connect via my iPhone and it seems to perform pretty well.

I use Microsoft Remote Desktop on iPhone and never have big problems.

It happens sporadically that I can’t connect to the VPS, either from iPhone or Macbook, basically the Microsoft Windows VPS has issues with authenticating the user and it freezes.

When this happens, 2-3 times per year, I simply go to my provider’s control panel and force reboot the VPS.

Thx all.

It was really weird. I use the iPhone to connect to multiple VPS
and all started denying access. Oddly, some would allow using strong WiFi.

RDP worked for 5 yrs+. I recently bought iPhone XR, but it’s just
stopped working 100% on old iPhone 7 Plus.

Anyway, thx to Euler, bought Remotix, and this seems to use RDP
to access etc, but works fine.

I tried rebooting etc. All pretty odd.
