It seems Google Remote Desktop, a Chrome extension, does not work properly with Buster + Mate. I haven't tried with Bullseye, which is not an option in the environment concerned due to CUPS bugs, but in Buster there is about 5 seconds of remote-mouse-movement then no more.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this, or any other approach that might work through a mobile broadband router (at the 'controlled' end) where there is no option to fwd ports?

Thanks,
Gareth

I actually replaced the OS at the controlled end with Ubuntu 22.04 for the time being (where Google Remote Desktop works flawlessly with Chrome) but will look into things again when Bookworm is released.

Many thanks,
Gareth

And have a look at https://rustdeck.com/
It is a open source TeamViewer alternative.
