teamviewer how it works without port forwarding?.

[Aphton]

Its magic!

Well, if there is no portforwarding then it must somehow use a bridge.
I guess it uses a server to which each client connects and retrieves its information from!

Teamviewer clients are connecting to a Teamviewer server. Your client gets the id from the server.

Why not?

I thought that maybe this could have been seen as a security threat or something like that..
But Im glad it hasnt =D Ill try it out.

Edit:
I just tried it out and it worked like a charm.
Btw. I thought skype is maybe using something different now. Because as it seems the technique is old... whatsoever.

[mquadrat]

It's the same technique that Skype is using.

teamviewer still did not explain how it works.
