Any progress on DHT ?

[blurHY]

GFW is upgraded.

Tracker exchanging doesn't work now
We need DHT

Chinese users complain about 'no tracker connected' and 'no peer found' on ZeroMe ,then they leave zeronet.

[HelloZeroNet]

No progress on this.
Last week I added trackers using cloudflare and google app engine, please try to update and see if it works, but for me it's looks like GFW started blocking peers instead of trackers.

With DHT, IPFS works like a charm.
GFW has only blocked its bootstrap nodes.

[HelloZeroNet]

Probably thats because GFW does not blocks IPFS protocol

[blurHY]

IPFS and verysync both have business in China. But zeronet doesn't
Maybe that's the reason

[blurHY]

Nope.
GFW blocked all ipfs bootstrap nodes which is like zeroent's trackers.
There are too many nodes to block,so GFW blocked bootstrap nodes

[HelloZeroNet]

I just did a test on my home connection using https://port.ping.pe/:

• 11:45 Client started with port opened. [port.ping.pe: All OK]
• 11:46 Closed my port on router (to see if they test ip before blocking it) [port.ping.pe: All fails]
• 14:53 Opened my port on router. [port.ping.pe: All OK]
• 15:25 [port.ping.pe: China nodes fails]
• 15:26 Changed the port [port.ping.pe: All OK]
• 15:54 [port.ping.pe: China nodes fails]

So it looks like they detect and block ZN protocol after ~30minutes

We have VPNs that confuse the data to cheat GFW and bypass it. Such as SSR,V2ray and Shadowsocks etc.
Can we have some plugin to cheat GFW, or intergrate SSR into zeronet (client and server)
Transfer all data through SSR tunnels

what about switching ports dynamically
like if not enough "traffic" of peers, switch ports
unless they blocked full IP

[HelloZeroNet]

My new port is just got banned in 10 minutes, so it's pretty hardcore and makes little sense to switch ports

It maybe a good solution that the zerotier is integrated into zeronet like tor, or the relay function is realized (#1497 ).

After saying that, its sure that they've readed it
