</div></div>It seems the Internet is getting crazier every day. Tinc was originally written<br>
with the assumption that the real network just worked as it should, and only<br>
provided encrypted tunneling for your private network. It was not designed to<br>
fix your network. It seems that the way forward these days is to just<br>
spread-spectrum spam the network with IP packets of every type and all port<br>
numbers, and see what sticks...<br>
<br>
I might add such a feature to tinc in the future. Meanwhile, I suggest you<br>
complain to your ISP, and if that is possible for you, switch or threaten to<br>
switch to another ISP.<br>
<br>
You can also try to set up multiple instances of tinc on each node of your VPN,<br>
with almost identical configurations except for the Port they are listening on,<br>
and use the bonding driver to spread packets out over all of them. If that<br>
prevents the ISP from dropping packets, it might improve your VPN's performace.<br>
