spacedesk doesn't work over gnirehtet

See original GitHub issue

Like mentionned in #420 discussion, I want to use gnirehtet to establish an isolated network bewteen my Windows machine and my Android tablet to maximize resolution and response of that network screen when using spacedesk. So far, I’m able to use it to browse internet over USB (excellent thing!). Which demonstrates the “VPN” works. However, when trying to start spacedesk client, it never finds the server running on my Window machine. I suspected it was because server discovery relied upon UDP packets being sent by server or client, so, according to documentation, I set the server IP address in the client, but it didn’t either work. And when checking the spacedesk server console, I can see no connection from client. What can I do to have that working ?

I don’t know how spacedesk works to establish the connection.

Gnirehtet just allows the Android device to open a connection from the other end of the tunnel (i.e. from the computer).

@Riduidel > Mind you, after that test, I successfully setup my tablet to use my freebox dns server at address 192.168.0.254. And this address legitimatally appears in Net Analyzer info screen. Can you share with more details how you manage to change the IP in Net Analyzer app?
