The viewer will try to make a direct connection between the Host and the Viewer.

If P2P option is not available on some networks, you will be connecting via one of our servers.

P2P creates a secure tunnel between you and your clients, resulting in a faster connection.

This option may slow down on some long distance connections. If you feel that this setting makes connections slower, you can disable it.
After you have connected using your viewer, on your ShowMyPC viewer window, click on the Options > Settings.
The settings pane will open and indicate if your network permitted a direct P2P connection.
If some of your clients do not connect well with P2P, you may temporarily disable it for those specific connections.
Note: Not all network types may be supported. A direct outgoing UDP (port 443) connection is required on both Host's and Viewer's network.
