Seeing as I use this via LAN connections and the TV client is set to not connect via the TV servers how can this feature be for their server protection? I have this all the time on my LAN trying to assist my users. I will be hunting for a replacement product that works as this is not fit for purpose. I continuously get locked out when the stupid software disconnects me and I try connect again. I have no issues on my LAN so all thats left is this rubbish software.

Same here - unacceptable for the customer, so some ask already to change to **Third Party Product**...

This thread now 5-6 years old and still nothing.
In my situation, I use teamviewer for remote manage a long list of kiosk devices.
If some central error occurs, I may have to remote all the devices one-by-one and "refresh" them to get the going. Currently, in such a sensitive situation, I can't do this. I don't understand how connecting once - successfully - to a number of devices can be considered. I can understand if you try to connect and fail multiple times - but all my connections are successful. If this is to prevent "brute-force" attacks, then why count successful attempts in this? That makes no sense to me from a security perspective.
Right now, we have to live with some clients not being able to get back online before ew can remote connect to them again. I am in a bigger IT company and I will advise that we look for another piece of software do to this. That we cannot get our all our customers back online because of this flawed security setup is just not acceptable.

I am not a corporate user but computer user who helps friends with their PC problems and also support several non profits with their computer issues. MUST be the **bleep** latest update that is causing the time out problem. Tried 3 times to log into a persons PC and got kicked out for XXXX minutes. It complained that the password was wrong. Typed it in at least 3 times without success. Trying to help elderly people there are going to be login / password issues but now with this going on it will make it nearly impossible to get connected. I have liked using the software as a free suer but I think I will have to start looking for something else as this **bleep**

Does anyone from Teamviewer actually read these posts? Adding to the above post, I have been using Teamviewer for years and NEVER had this problem until today. Years ago I complained to them about being locked out and somehow they set my account so I could use it but now it has reverted back to locking out or disconnecting within about 30 secs saying too many connect tries for a free account.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Such a feature should be fully under the administrator's control, including whether it's enabled or not, the ability to reset it, and to configure its timeout, etc. This 'security' feature has caused a total disaster on more than one occasion. Imagine a production environment that MUST be accessed ASAP, with the client going absolutely belligerent because they need a setting updated that's affecting their entire business.. Locking an administrator out of their own server is also known as a denial of service attack. It's ironic that in an attempt to guard against DoS attacks, you decide to DoS attack your users. It is baffling that you think it is ok to infringe upon people's critical systems like that. It's as if a police officer were to break into my apartment in order to tell me that I've been flushing the toilet too much lately and am not allowed to use it for a while, right in the middle of an emergency.

**bleep**, that's just nuts. Another ridiculous 'feature' is not being allowed to use my personal teamviewer at work in order to connect to my home machine while on break. They really need to stay in their lane and stop this **bleep**. using my home computer during my free time at work is NOT commercial use. And the fact that they snoop on your connections to determine if you're at work or not is a huge violation of so many principles. I've been using TeamViewer for many years and it's a great piece of software, except for these RIDICILOUS and UNACCEPTABLE problems that they INTENTIONALLY introduced. Seriously, what **bleep** is wrong with you guys? Are you friends with Putin?

In a time-critical scenario, my tv client should not block attempts to a machine that's shown as online while it isn't. Great Webview implementation you've got there. Maybe show machine as offline when it isn't online so I can't even go for connection attempts which block me later?
7.5 years later, you didn't even manage to change about 1 line of code to change the error message from waiting a short while to wait a specific time (if it is 10-15 minutes, just say 15 minutes).
And you really should forward this more than sufficient documented issue from this thread to the ideas hub on your own. Or maybe, you know, forward it internally because it is obviously a very poor attempt of a security implementation.
**bleep** in full swing, not just with Teamviewer. 🤣
