Will the Grid run outside IBM?

I installed the Grid from within the IBM firewall. When I am at home on my DSL only and not dialed in to IBM, the Grid Agent does not seem to run. Is that to be expected, or can I make the Grid run with any internet connection?

Re: Will the Grid run outside IBM?

The World Community Grid agent should work anywhere. All it needs is an internet connection that can get you to a normal outside web page, and only when it is done with a unit of work and asking for a new one.

If you are using a laptop, and if you are running on battery power, the agent will stop running to conserve battery power. Is this what you are experiencing?

Absolutely. The World Community Grid went public today and is available to anyone. Please check your firewall and proxy settings.

Please see the information on this site regarding Network Settings
