Remote Office Access

Use Harbor to access your office network from anywhere.

Many companies require employees to be on the office Wi-Fi or VPN to access internal systems. Harbor lets you connect from anywhere by running on your office computer.

Install Harbor on Your Office Computer

Set up Harbor on your office computer following the standard guide. Make sure the connection works before leaving the office.

Keep Your Computer Awake

Go to System Settings → Energy Saver, enable 'Prevent automatic sleeping when the display is off'. Or install Amphetamine (free App Store app) to keep it awake.
