Is TeamViewer compatible with VPN connections?

Asked 2 years ago
TeamViewer is primarily designed for remote access and support rather than functioning as a Virtual Private Network, or VPN. However, it can work alongside VPN connections. When using TeamViewer within a VPN, users may experience some limitations depending on the network configuration and the specific VPN software being used. In many cases, TeamViewer can seamlessly connect to remote computers that are part of a VPN. It is important to ensure that the firewall settings are properly configured, as VPNs may block certain types of connections. TeamViewer allows users to connect to devices regardless of whether they are behind a VPN, as long as TeamViewer is operational on both ends of the connection. For optimal performance, users should verify their network settings and troubleshoot any connectivity issues that may arise in a VPN environment. For the most accurate and specific information, it may be beneficial to refer to TeamViewer’s official website.
