I have a Mac Pro and a 120 Mbps up (2 Mbps down) broadband cable connection over my Fritbox 7390.
When I use the Microsoft RDP Client or the CorD-Client on OS X (Lion, Snow Leopard, Leopard - all have the same problem), the RDP connection is very slow. When I start Windows in Boot Camp on the same machine and use the RDP client from Windows, everything is fine.
Can anyone tell me the reason for this? How can I fix it? Are there any modifications I can make, such as TCP optimization?
Have Parallels? Try running RDP that way? – Keltari – 2014-12-30T00:22:21.920
The RDS protocol has various optimisations in it, not all of which a client is required to implement. They get added over time. Obviously Microsoft's client implements most of them, the only other client I've seen that implements a lot of them is iTap. But it's commercial (although it was worth it for me, for near to mstsc performance). If you can compile FreeRDP (good luck!), I hear it performs well too. – ta.speot.is – 2013-04-26T21:51:26.333
