remote pc access
Teamviewer recently started flagging me as a "commercial" user even though I only use it for personal things. Looking the the support forums this is a huge issue for many other users also. The reason I used it was because it seems to be the only way I can get out from my corporate network to my home pc. SSH traffic also seems to be blocked on any port. When I tried some of the web ssh solutions it gets blocked since it requires valid certificates etc.
Anyway I'm asking if anyone knows of an alternative to teamviewer that get get through proxies/firewalls just as effective or have other ideas for me to get to the outside world. SSH or any remote access would be great.

Setup your own vpn (ie openvpn) server to encrypt traffic and set the port to be whatever isnt blocked on your network. That way you basically bypass all corporate network restrictions
I'm having the same problem with you.
So for now, I try :
But if for connecting as in local without port blocking, I use Tinc. One VPS as Tinc Server, one laptop as Tinc Client, one Raspy as Tinc Client, one PC as Tinc Client.
All access to each device with no port blocking. Just need internal IP, such 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.200
Anydesk. It's made by some old teamviewer employees, if I rememeber correctly
thanks but I tried that and it doesn't get through the firewall/proxy
Ultraviewer / AnyDesk
I use Neorouter free to get through firewalls and routers and then use the neorouter IP in Teamviewer directly. Doesn't go through TV servers and no warning. You can leave it open for days.
You can also try Remote Utilities.
Zoho assist?

Parallels access ($20/year, web browser or mobile app remote access to Windows PC).

Even places like gotossh.com?
Or you could always go in through a provider's console to your VPS and ssh from there.
Or host Ajaxterm yourself.
Could try connectwise control (Screenconnect)

Should be free for 3 access agents or 1 on-demand session (Free is limited to one concurrent active session, you can use the on-demand session and the access agents but you can't be connected to both at the same time)
