Lubuntu 17 incoming connection problems

[phil.thecreator]

Almost all the time TW12 on my linux wont start incoming connection (outgoing is ok), saw some kind of "error" with orange indicator's color in the mailn window of the app, trying to see logs, but log botton in the app did nothing.

Hi, Phil.

Just a suggestion, this; but.....have you checked to see whether your ISP might be blocking things?

It's only an idea, but I know many unscrupulous individuals like using TeamViewer for scams, etc., since it's the only remote access tool I know of that doesn't require modifications to your firewall.

And it's for this very reason that a number of ISPs 'blacklist' it as a matter of course, in the name of 'customer protection'. Perhaps TeamViewer is becoming the victim of its own success..!
