Remote desktop over 500ms latency: What is the best client to use

latencyrdpremote desktopremote-accesswide-area-network

We have a very slow RDP session from NYC to India (500ms) and we are looking for a client that will withstand this latency.

What do you recommend in this circumstance? Is there a better remote desktop solution that handles this type of connection? Perhaps one that is optimised for satellite connections.

Best Answer

SSH may be an option for some tasks. The command-line is much tolerant of latency.
