UDP over TCP

Open miladrahimi opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Do you have any plan to implement TCP-Only (UDP-over-TCP) mode? UDP traffic is more suspicious. Sometimes ISPs ban it and something like WhatsApp calls would be impossible.

If UDP is not working, most applications should detect this and fall back to TCP. One exception is DNS, but Outline has a DNS-over-TCP fallback that activates if UDP appears to be failing.

Hi team,

asking for the same feature. The problem is UDP is not blocked altogether but udp has some intermittent noise/disruption. so whatsapp calls are not smooth and they experience ups and downs.

Any plan to add UDP over TCP ?
