The remote connection is slow or laggy

The recommended NetEase UU Remote connects directly without a VPN, and typing, browsing and using Claude are usually smooth; with other remote apps, it also depends on the app. The experience depends mostly on your local network.

Things to try first

• Use a stable network: wired broadband or strong 5G / Wi-Fi works best; move closer to your router.
• Pause bandwidth-heavy apps: downloads, video and cloud sync on your computer or the same network compete for bandwidth.
• Lower the picture quality or resolution: in NetEase UU Remote, click 「控制中心」 (Control center) at the top right of the remote screen, lower 「画质」 (Picture quality) a step, or pick a lower resolution such as 「跟随被控端」 (Match the remote computer). The screen becomes more responsive. In other remote apps, use that app’s own settings or toolbar.
• Reconnect: choose 「退出远控」 (End remote control) in the Control center and connect again, or restart your remote app.
• Update your remote app: install the latest version from the official site; old versions can be slower.

Still laggy

On this Mac mini’s service page, click “Contact support”. The ticket form opens with the category and this service already selected. Include the machine’s device ID, when the lag happens and the network you use (broadband, phone hotspot, etc.), ideally with a screenshot, and our staff will take a look. Please don’t send the device verification code.
