Hi ajpriebe, welcome to the community.
"Could not connect. Check your internet connection and try again." means that the software is unable to connect to our servers, this can be caused by a change in your local network, an issue with an ISP you are being routed through or a service disruption on our side. This support article covers what needs to be allowed through a local firewall for our services to work: Allowlisting and GoTo
Since you are able to connect through the web browser and we are not experiencing any service issues currently, I would start by reviewing our Allowlist and making sure that our software is not being blocked. The reviewing the debug logs may also help: Where do I find client app debug logs? Note: You may need to enable debug logging in the Client Preferences first.
I've looked at the allowlisting article. Even with firewalls turned off, I am getting this error. Was the allowlisting information supposed to be for the client or the host?
Regarding debug logs: I used the linked article and turned on debug logs. I still don't see the logs. Is toggling this feature "on" actually just sending logs somewhere?
I didn't mention it before, but maybe it's relevant. The computer using the client app is a Mac. The host computer is a PC.
Finally, is there a phone number I can call to get help? It seems that there used to be, but now I had the option of the community boards or an email.
Thanks again.
- The information in the Allowlisting article is for both client and hosts.
- Once you enable debug logging the client will begin to generate them and then you will see log files available locally. It may take 15+ minutes to generate anything, you could try exiting and reopening the client and then try to login again to see what is captured.
- Mac OS Privacy and Security settings are typically more of an issue for a host as we need permission to access the HD, record the screen, etc
