I have a home WIFI network set up as per the graphic below.
Using XRDP the Windows box can make a remote connection to the Ubuntu machine, but the connection is so slow that it has no practical use.
I also tried Splashtop, but I was unable to connect to Ubuntu from Windows. Splashtop support were unable to offer the necessary support to resolve the issue (Splashtop for Ubuntu is a Beta version).
As an experiment, I installed the Splashtop client app on an Android tablet. The Android tablet was able to remotely access the Ubuntu machine via Splashtop and the connection is very fast. The Android test suggests to me that there is an issue with the Windows client/Windows settings, perhaps security related, that is causing an extreme slow down of the connection.
Any ideas as to how I could provide a fast remote desktop connection from Windows to Ubuntu for my scenario?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
