    Hi, can you tell us what operating system you are connecting from and connecting to? Are you running the latest NoMachine 8.6 on both sides?

    Have you seen the article in our knowledge base that explains how to set up port-forwarding? (section 3. Troubleshooting for most common cases requiring manual configuration of the router)

    https://kb.nomachine.com/AR04S01122

    It could be that you have a double NAT and in that case port forwarding must be configured manually on both routers (your home router and your work’s computer)
