Instead of using a web browser to access the VLAB at vlab.pdx.edu, you can choose to access the VLAB using the Microsoft Remote Desktop application, which you can download and install on your laptop, desktop computer, or mobile device.
Note: For the best experience using a mobile device, a keyboard and mouse or other input device is required. We recommend that you have experience accessing VLAB with Microsoft Remote Desktop on a desktop or laptop computer prior to using the app on an Android or iOS mobile device.
