On the server with the gateway and the remote PC through VPN I can get to the status and home pages. `http://localhost:8088/web/status/?13`

When I try to access the Perspective pages, it works on the gateway server but not the remote PC. It's just stuck Initializing client..., Authenticating...and Connecting...

The log don't seem to notice.

I would look for firewalls on the remote network path that do not support websockets.
