Am I getting that right?
Yes... I think what you're saying is that when this hotel connection slows to a crawl, there won't be enough bandwidth to allow me to view the remote screen or control it.. right? I do understand that when the hotel connection slows to a crawl I'll still be fucked, no matter how fast the remote machine is. I'd have to be pretty stupid to not understand that!! LoL!

All I'm saying is that most of the time I'll have enough bandwidth through the hotel connection that I'll be able to control the remote machine which will always be lightning fast..

Are there ways of compressing the desktop image on one end and uncompressing it here? With crossloop I could go to a lower "quality" if the connection slowed..
