First you will need to make sure that SSH is enabled and running & Remote.It is installed and configured on the device you want to connect to (target device):
- Refer to your device OS documentation to enable SSH if you do not know how to do so.
- Install Remote.It on the device by logging into https://app.remote.it or the Remote.It desktop application and clicking the “+” (Add device) icon, then selecting your device type.
- Follow the installation instructions (most cases it is copying the command and pasting it into a command line on your target device)
- After it registers, make sure that you have an SSH service and that it is online.
Make your connection:
From the computer or device which is going to be using the connection, for example your Windows desktop.:
- Open https://app.remote.it or the Remote.It Desktop Application
- Search for or click on your device from the device list.
- Click on the “Connect” button on the SSH service when on the device page.
- Once connected, Remote.It might prompt you for the username for the login. Enter that (it is case sensitive)
- Click launch if it doesn’t launch automatically.
You may want to use a different application such as putty for your SSH connections and/or want to use launch commands to pass keys. See this article on setting connection defaults https://link.remote.it/support/connection-settings
