I used i2p from InviZible Pro (F-Droid).
I was trying to connect my Monero wallet to a Monero RPC Damon that somebody I know runs and while it did connect the absolute best speed I could ever achieve through it was 45KiB/s. I changed no settings at all and just used the defaults. Turned it on and had 33 client tunnels.
Tor usually gets me ~400KiB/s to the hs, but i thought i2p would be faster.
Edit: it used 2 hops as default and i left it that way.
Increasing the tunnel length add more peers per tunnel, but increasing the tunnel quantity will add more tunnels, which will allow more throughput.
Oh, my bad. I misunderstood when you said tunnel quantity and was thinking you were talking about tunnel hops. Unfortunately, I can’t do anything about the firewall aspect because over IPv4 I am behind CGNAT and on IPv6 I absolutely refuse to turn on UPNP of any kind because UPNP is dangerous to have enabled and I haven’t manually forwarded any ports
No worries, hopefully increasing the tunnel quantity will get you acceptable speeds, I could be missing something, but thats all I can think of besides allowing inbound traffic.
Something I forgot to mention, there is the Java I2P router, its availiable in the default f-droid repo, I havent tested it out on Android, but it has a fancy gui on desktop where everything can be configured, it some blocklists of tor exit nodes and stuff, I think that helps performance, I’m not totally sure tho, I dont use the Java versions, they have too many buttons and switches, and its kinda overwhelming for me.
I didn’t see anything about tunnel quantity, specifically for the socks proxy. I did see something about it for HTTP, but I’m not using HTTP.
[httpproxy] enabled = true address = 127.0.0.1 port = 4444 inbound.length = 1 inbound.quantity = 5 outbound.length = 1 outbound.quantity = 5 signaturetype=7 i2cp.leaseSetType=3 i2cp.leaseSetEncType=0,4 keys = proxy-keys.dat addresshelper = true #outproxy = http://false.i2p ## httpproxy section also accepts I2CP parameters, like "inbound.length" etc. [socksproxy] enabled = true address = 127.0.0.1 port = 4447 keys = socks-proxy-keys.dat #outproxy.enabled = false #outproxy = 127.0.0.1 #outproxyport = 9050 ##socksproxy section also accepts I2CP parameters, like inbound.length etcHowever, since that socks proxy section says that it takes I2CP commands, I wonder if I could just paste the info from the HTTP part above.
Yes, you can take the quantity and length options from the http proxy and just paste it into the socks proxy section, I think tunnel quantity can go up to 16, I recommend 8 for high bandwidth stuff like torrenting, but it will use more CPU and battery, but lowering length from the default of 3 to 1 should help a lot.
I got no help from that whatsoever. It’s still extremely slow even after letting my clients sit there and integrate for over 30 minutes and seeing over a thousand routers.
Idk then, I’ve easily gotten speeds of upto 1.2 MiB/s while torrenting, uploading and downloading, I just downloaded a book from a webserver with wget to test my speed through the HTTP proxy, and I got about 150-300 KB/s throughout the whole transfer, I’m using the default settings of 3 hops, and my router isnt firewalled, no clue what the servers settings are.
I’m wondering if it’s because I am firewalled off, because on IPv4, I am behind CGNAT, and on IPv6, I have not done any port forwarding, and do not use UPnP.
