I use VNC to connect from the road to my computer at home. One time the
router went out and I could not connect to my computer. I therefore had my
wife connect to the internet through a dial-up connection. In my area, the
best speed I can get by dialup is 22 - 24 KBPS. The connection was SLOW but
otherwise fine. The only problem I noted was that periodically I would have
to reconnect to my home computer. with the slow connection speed, the VNC
connection kept closng. The home computer maintianed the modem connection,
however, so it was always simple to re-connect through VNC. I do not know
why I kept losing the VNC connection, but I presume it was because of
problems caused by the 22 KBPS connection.

I am very new to RealVNC and now am using it between computers, linux and
windows. I really appreciate the functionality. My question:
Mom lives on the west coast, I'm on the east. She only has a 52K dial-up
modem. When she has computer problems, I walk through the checks and fixes
with her over the phone. Invariably, right click gets mixed up with left
click and she is not conveying precisely what is happening on her box.
Terminology becomes an obstacle--the usual stuff for the home-user. I want
to work on her box via RealVNC to show her what to do and teach her how
things work. Can I have her install VNC and then work over the viewer
through her 52K modem? If so, please note special hardware configurations
that may be required. I have the standard broadband modem/router hookup.
This would be a great teaching tool.
