I agree. The only place I cannot access my desktop from using splashtop is my college campus. I've tried all the fixes on the website but nothing fixes it. It works from everywhere else but school.

Does your college use a proxy server?

I have just been following this thread and I went ahead and purchased Splashtop on the strength of what you wrote. It is absolutely priceless! Thank you all for inadvertently pointing me in the right direct.

Yes but Splashtop also allows audio to stream . For just manipulation of the desktop/laptop it is fine and fast.
An advantage to Team Viewer is it is free and if you aren't using streaming with audio it's fine.

I'm assuming they do. I contacted the tech department and they couldn't give me a straight answer and acted all baffled when I explained what I wanted to do...why on earth would one want to access their pc remotely from an iPad? Lol
