NeoRouter VPN Free for Android
Doesnt work- Tested on multiple networks and PC's. Eventually I tried on my 3g connection with no firewall enabled and still couldn't connect. Hamachi works, do that 1.
Used to work fine. On 6.0.1 with nrserver on Ubuntu it connects but there is no ping, or working connection. Firewalls disabled still problematic.
I've been using neo router as my VPN for quite some time and while the mobile version of the client works it's throughput leaves a lot to be desired one of the more important functions it's lacking is the ability to switch between the three communication modes UDP tcp/ip and server relay. there are many times when you want to change this manually because certain Network configurations work better under different circumstances
This is one piece of excellent software. Would help if the connection was persistent as the link drops from time to time, but apart from that it works well. Even through a properly configured server and router!! (Hint hint!!)
This software has phenomenal potential. I'm using it on three windows computers, two android devices and one linux. For remote desktop, I get better results using aRDP client over the VPN itself, rather than Neorouter Remote.
Any way to make it persistent and log in automatically? Its VERY annoying to have to launch the app and log in manually whenever I want to use it. Thanks.
Don't let the peoples high rates fool you.
Back to 5 stars after latest lollipop update
Works like a charm
Since upgrading to Lollipop on my GS5, i could no longer connect the client. When asked if I trust the app, the OK button cannot be clicked; only cancel can be clicked. It worked mere days ago on the Lollipop beta I was testing. Turns out, the official Lollipop ROM has "tapjacking" protection. It will only allow users to click OK on securty settings if it detects no overlays on the screen. I was using Twilight display app. Disabled it, clicked OK, reenabled twilight. All good!
This is not unlimited vpn like hotspot shield,viatun vpn
For some reason that I do not know neorouter app will not allow me to select "I trust this app" on my Galaxy note 3, so I cannot connect :-( Awesome on my old note 1 though. HELP!
This is a nice program if you want to remote rdp or ssh to computer via a vpn with zeroconf. Dont listen to those non computer savvy.
Too complicated, the guide that the have skips a huge part. Wyse PocketCloud took me 5 mins to figure it out!
Stupid app, Pocket Cloud is very very easy n better.Don't lose your time to this app.
Looks all right but after few hours from installation it messed up connection to network operator (not data but making calls) when wifi is turned on.
Can't get to work...too much screwing around.Instructions not clear.WYSE PocketCloud way bettr & easy to set up.
Absolutely brilliant app and works flawlessly. However, this is for people who understand networking or at least read manuals!
It's like Hamachi for your android phone. Requires a little bit of technical knowledge to get up and running but is extremely helpful.
It's a very useful piece of code.Wonderful to ssh servers in networks with closed ports.
Not a vpn client. Should be clear about that up front. I don't control my company network.
Works great. Easier to setup than openvpn
Change log please
Works! Setting up can be a little challenging--make sure you understand how it works--read the online docs.
Worked fine on a moment but you have to have the server installed first
Wow, wow, wow! Such freedom on my restricted work computers AND it's all free! Awesome! Did take time to figure it out but worth the effort! Thank you
I'm not sure I get all the "hard to use" comments.
If you have 4 hours and know about port forwarding and stuff. Still Don't get this :(
Did not work with Samsung Moment. Uninstalled.
Is install to SD an option? This is a big app...
No instructions at all. Takes you to a webpage that doesn't open on Firefox, Opera, Dolphin, or stock. Doesn't open on Windows or Linux either.
Running on Android 4x, the app is very similar to the original version of Hamachi (before LogMeIn bought it). Together with VNC, it makes for a very nice, and secure remote access system. I've got the Windows version installed on a number of distant family computers, for those occasional tech support calls. It's a nice replacement for Hamachi. I like it better than Teamviewer too.

Love this program
This new update is great. This product just improve continually! Thanks NeoRouter!!
It works quite well for me, I think some of the criticisms here are a bit harsh. Anyway the only hiccup I find is that whenever the 3G connection drops out, the NeoRouter application freezes and CPU utilization jumps to 50% or higher (even after the 3G connection is restored). So it needs some work to better handle dropouts in the connection. It will deserve 5 stars once that issue is addressed!
NR is excellent with one small problem - if left idling in the background more than a few minutes, it dies. That is, since it isn't running as an Android Service (rather as a normal application) it will constantly die when you aren't using it. With any other app this would be fine, but it's a VPN - once you pick an aapp to forward the traffic to, it will ALWAYS be in the background. Thus, you can't use it for more than 15-20 minutes at a time without relaunching and reconnecting over and over and over. I contacted their support about this and they sent me a build to test. It seems to have increased the time before the system kills it to around 40-50 minutes, but NR still doesn't run as a service, so it still dies. I suspect they merely tried to increase the process priority - which is a stop-gap solution that I could've told them wouldn't work. THIS NEEDS TO RUN AS A SYSTEM SERVICE, OR IT WILL DIE, PERIOD. Until this is fixed I am using ConnectBot and manually tunneling apps one at a time. The setup is a pain, but I can run them for 3 or 4 hours at a time and they never get killed because, with ConnectBot, the system treats SSH runnels as a SERVICE...
Company stated: "ZERO CONFIG product" this Neorouter. This is simply no true. I read ther 56 pages manual and it is no way how average person may configure this software to work. I am 17 years with PCs and their "manual" is nonunderstandable. They stated: "set up port forwarding at your router, he, he, he". For common folk it is end station. Folks with IT university may success, common folks not.
Won't let me login to my server.

Works as advertised. Connects your device to your neorouter server. Third party apps have to be used after connected such as a VNC client, RDP client, SSH client, or a SFTP/SMB compatible file manager. All of which are freely available on the play store. This app just makes the connection. Great app. Thank you.
