Is remote desktop connection usable? I'm wifi connected. I can connect very briefly with password, remote, but get protocol error and lose connection. remote access connection would be great. Any suggestions?

Remote desktop should work. I just tried it out here and it worked fine. It could possibly be a wifi issue. Could you connect the Id to the network via ethernet just as a test? You could also try connecting remotely with VNC.

thanks Brad, I tried wired connection but get the same behavior with Remote Desktop Connection, I use the password remote as suggested, it connects for about 5 seconds and then stops saying remote access is not on, not enabled or not connected.  I seem to be connected ok. I will have to look into VNC, not familiar with that. Is VNC server preinstalled in ID?

[BradATIMA]

Yes, the Id has a VNC server running. All you need to do is install a VNC viewer on the machine you use to connect to it remotely. I usually use tiger VNC viewer for that. It's been a while, but I don't even think there is anything to install. You just need to download the VNC viewer exe file and run it.

Thanks Brad, now can connect vnc and works great. no longer have to use key, mouse and try to read monitor on other side of room.  great!
