Localhost dashboard + remote server with firewall = Timeout

Hi,

I love the concept of this plugin but I’m not having any joy setting it up. I want to have the dashboard running locally with multiple children on different servers all with AIOWPS and/or Wordfence running.

After generating the key on the remote site with “Use alternative method of making a connection…” selected I can’t connect as the connection times out.

I’ve tried:
– turning off the security plugins on the remote site (gulp!) and tried again
– selecting all methods of connecting on the dashboard (via “Advanced…”)
– regenerated the remote key with different urls (https://wp.dev, https://localhost/wp.dev and https://wp.dev/cp)
– turning off adblocker on my browser (Chrome)

I’m not sure if it’s relevant (probably isn’t since I’ve tried to connect without the security plugins enabled) but my /wp-login on the remote site isn’t in the usual place (i.e. I’ve moved that page to /somewhereelse).

I haven’t had anything in the “View recent UpdraftCentral log events” when I press “fetch” so I’m a bit stuck.

If anyone’s got any ideas how I might be able to get this working that would be great.

Thanks,
James
