KPA500 Remote does not require a VPN. In Client/Server mode, you run an instance on a computer near the KPA500 and tell it "Start Hosting Remote." It connects to the KPA500 via a COM port or USB-Serial connection. You connect to it from an instance running at the control site and tell it to "Connect to Remote." Easy peasy, no VPN.
I think you can also run a single instance of KPA500 Remote at the control site through a remote serial port connection, again without a VPN, but I've not tried it. FYI, KAT500 Remote operates identically to control the ATU remotely. Both Kxx500 Remote applications provide a very readable, full front panel experience. 73, /Rick On Fri, Jul 28, 2017 at 11:48 AM, Chris Tate - N6WM <ct...@ewnetinc.com> wrote: > This will require some knowledge of vpn and/or port forwarding to handle > remotely. > > The new flex remote software does not use VPN and dynamically configures > UPNP enabled routers, thus there will be a bit of additional tweaking and > knowledge needed to accomplish this. > > ~Chris > N6WM > ________________________________________ > From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] > on behalf of Ken K6MR [k...@outlook.com] > Sent: Friday, July 28, 2017 11:06 AM > To: k...@gmx.com; elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Query, KPA500 Remote Opns > > Yes.
