If you are on a Wireless network that is only used by yourself try
both settings and see which performs better.<br>
<br>
The reason I mentioned the local WiFi setup consideration is that
some folks forget that WiFi being shared by alot of users impacts
jitter/latency. Some of this could be addressed by utilizing
multiple access-points or WiFi routers and then connect those
multiple wifi devices into a small ethernet hub or switch ... which
then connects to your WAN connection for internet access.<br>
<br>
With multiple wifi devices tho you do need to think about what wifi
frequency spectrum each is using as you wouldn't want both using the
same spectrum even if they are configured as different wifi networks
for your users.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi Brian,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks a lot for your tips to improve the performance. So
now, I am going to try:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) If download link is good then I will try "LAN" settings</div>
<div>2) When it is in wireless network , I will try "WAN"
settings. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yesterday, I tried different settings using LAN, WAN, ADSL
with simulated latency but I was not able to identify the
difference between different settings. I might need to run
some youtube video to see the difference. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks again for your help.</div>

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> I should have added a
little more info related to this.<br>
<br>
I use Amazon's EC2 cloud quite a bit with x2go.<br>
<br>
My AWS EC2 server runs ubuntu 13.10 x64 and I have the
x2goserver installed on it with the xubuntu-desktop (re
xfce desktop).<br>
<br>
However, on that server I think installing xubuntu-desktop
must have auto-magically installed "libjpeg-turbo-progs"
because I did not have to install it manually.<br>
<br>
My home PC has an 18Mbps downlink from the internet and a
3 Mbps uplink (I use ATT uVerse).<br>
<br>
Now regards the X2GO client CONNECTION SETTINGS.<br>
<br>
Setting the Client to WAN <br>
<ul>
<li>logging into the AWS x2goserver's XFCE and then
running firefox I goto youtube and play a music video.</li>
<li>video is a bit choppy (I know that's subjective
<g>).</li>
</ul>
<br>
Setting the Client to LAN (no compression)<br>
<ul>
<li>logging into the AWS x2goserver's XFCE and then
running firefox I goto youtube and play a music video.</li>
<li> video is almost perfect - re less choppiness than
with Client set to WAN.</li>
</ul>
So at least in my experience whether you set the Client to
WAN or LAN "may" depend on your downlink speed from the
remote x2goserver.<br>
If you have a fast enough WAN connection at your client
you may find doing no compression at all (re LAN) provides
a better experience.<br>
<br>
Lastly, don't forget to consider what your "local" lan
consists of. If your Client PC is on a Wireless network
and sharing that Wireless network with <br>
multiple other Wireless network users you may find that
your wireless network is having a bigger impact on QoS of
the video in the remote desktop<br>
than the remote server, local PC or the WAN.<br>

I've used libturbo-jpeg for a couple years with x2go
after I first learned about it.<br>
<br>
You might check your Distro... but at least for
Ubuntu I believe libturbo-jpeg is the default
installed by Ubuntu now.<br>
<br>
<b><i>NOTE: in the following - I <u>did
have to</u> install "libjpeg-turbo-progs"
separately </i></b><br>
<br>
On my Ubuntu 13.10 x64 system if I run Synaptic and
search for "libturbo" I find:<br>
<blockquote><b><i>Independent JPEG Group's JPEG
runtime library (dependency package) </i></b><br>
<b><i> </i></b><br>
<b><i>libjpeg8 dependency package, depending on
libjpeg-turbo8.</i></b><br>
</blockquote>
You might do the same on your Distro to find out
what libjpeg is being used today.<br>
