Hi @Anonymous ,

First, please make sure the gateway didn't install in Virtual network. Not sure if the credentails part cause this error... Please refer the following links to configure credentails, later check if it can work well...

// Basic credentials var credentials = new BasicCredentials(username: "john", password: "*****"); var credentialsEncryptor = new AsymmetricKeyEncryptor(publicKey); var credentialDetails = new CredentialDetails(credentials, PrivacyLevel.Private, EncryptedConnection.Encrypted, credentialsEncryptor);
