Beam out into the network of your own device

Rita's home PC stays at home, signed in with her account. On holiday her laptop - with the same account - beams into her home network with one Connect.

Rita about Awacino

What I like
One Connect and my laptop is in my home network - wherever I am.
Use case
I use Awacino to reach my home PC and everything in my home network when I am on holiday.
What works better than with alternative solutions
No VPN server to set up and no port forwarding - the laptop connects directly to my home PC, end-to-end encrypted.
