Latency monitoring for jumpers beats DBeaver's sluggish tunneling on Windows.

Strengths

•Parsing SSH commands to bulk-import tunnels saves manual configuration time.
•Real-time latency monitoring helps select the fastest route among multiple jumpers.
•Smart reconnection with exponential backoff handles unstable networks better than basic clients.

Weaknesses

•Freemium model limits free users to three tunnels, while SSH CLI is unlimited.
•AI debug feature feels gimmicky compared to standard verbose SSH logging output.

Post Description

I made this app because 1) I am tired of low performance DBeaver's ssh tunnel 2) Meanwhile, there is no good App in Windows to solve this problem. 3) I don't like CLI

so I made this desktop app with Go and Wails. Mac\Windows are both supported.

Some features I think it should be helpful 1) With GUI 2) Auto-start after App started\App could auto start after os booted 3) Easy to create tunnels (ex. could import from SSH command) 4）Latency monitoring, if you have multiple jumpers, you could choose a better one by monitoring.

I use this tool everyday, both in my Mac and Windows. I think it should be useful for some developers, so I share it here.

Still in beta stage, I am still trying to make it better Free to create 3 tunnels, mail to me could get an invitation code to upgrade to pro Meanwhile, I also provide 10 pro codes below: REHN-47T5-WUBK-6406 REHN-59LQ-UO19-LJI8 REHN-6BHQ-158N-GX7K REHN-UFOZ-N8T1-ERA6 REHN-0QYH-CI0F-2SWO REHN-AYSY-20LI-5RA0 REHN-HFAY-JZ4T-UOHU REHN-7ZZV-DWPW-D6TK REHN-OWM7-WDFZ-3Z53 REHN-DD6K-UG2L-6ZOC

Looking forward for your feedbacks
