RealVNC Viewer fails to connect to the MAS

Symptom

"Out of the box", RealVNC Viewer version 4.x.x won't establish a connection with the MAS. After entering the MAS IP address and clicking OK, RealVNC Viewer either never connects with the MAS, or takes many minutes to do so. Either way, no error messages are displayed.

Resolution

Start the RealVNC Viewer:

ReadVNC Viewer startup dialog

In the Connection Details dialog box, click the "Options..." button:

ReadVNC Viewer options dialog

In the Options dialog box, select the "Misc" tab:

ReadVNC Viewer options dialog misc tab

Check the option that says "Only use protocol version 3.3". Then select the "Load / Save" tab:

ReadVNC Viewer options dialog misc tab

Click "Defaults - Save", then "OK" to close the Options dialog.

RealVNC viewer should now connect properly with the MAS.
