One option might be to try ZeroTier instead of ReadyCloud.

Hi maho69,
i have tried with Poweramp player for ReadyCLOUD Android app.
Before audio file download to local, when try to open audio file in ReadyCLOUD app, it don't show Poweramp player to play this file.
After download to local, when try to open audio file in ReadyCLOUD app, it show Poweramp player to play. You can select Poweramp player as default palyer to play.
Infact, In Android system, each player associate itself with specific MIME type and protocol scheme. In your case it seems that Poweramp associated itself with scheme "file://", but no "http://"
When open a file on android Readycloud app, usually it just asks Android system to open the file and system shows app selection dialog if necessary
If you still want to play audio file with your favorite player Poweramp, you can download the files to local, then try to play them.
Best Regards.

Hi, thanks for answer first.
Unfortunately, all attempts were unsuccessful. The downloaded file played the app with Poweramp, but for the streaming I did not have Poweramp to choose from.
