I thought adding a tracker meant adding whatever is on that front page so that I could search around and download without using the site. You need to add something that is usually called "Announce URL" (or multiple of them). You add it/them to the "trackers" tab of each torrent ...

Is there a way to use your phone AS a I2P Hotspot Tunnel? I'm probably going to have to SSH Into it which could require rooting the phone... You don't have to root. There are multiple options: - you can just configure the tunnel to listen on 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost, it will be possible to acce...

Are you sure your phone does not suspend the i2pd app when you're not using it?
You may check by trying to access your phone i2pd from the laptop at different times.

For the raspberry pi, the general recommendation is to run i2pd (not java i2p) because it uses less resources than java i2p.

The thing with i2p is that everything has its own address called Destination, which is a pair of cryptographic keys. The whole point of i2p is to hide where this Destination is coming from in the real world. Your HTTP proxy (which you use to access i2p) also has a Destination. Other parties that you...

It's not really discouraged. There is even a default outproxy supplied by an organization (stormycloud). There are also some other public outproxies from the community. One can even run their own private outproxy. It's just different from Tor because in Tor you get different exit nodes at different ...

VPN apps usually have a feature to exclude apps from the VPN, but I don't know orbot specifically

Edit the file i2pd.conf (not tunnels.conf) The example file for this is located here: https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd/blob/openssl/contrib/i2pd.conf (if you didn't have it installed as it usually is by default) To remove bandwidth limit and increase share, write at the top of the file (not inside ...

Oh so using the client ports on. Thunderbird would not be an option? like in here? #[SMTP] #type = client #address = 127.0.0.1 #port = 7659 #destination = smtp.postman.i2p #destinationport = 25 #keys = smtp-keys.dat #[POP3] #type = client #address = 127.0.0.1 #port = 7660 #destination = pop.postman...

could this be an issue caused by my Orbot? Does it run in VPN mode? If it does, it probably wraps all traffic through Tor. That is not good for i2p. (See my other post ). Also if you run it on your phone, it might do some battery optimizations and interfere with running i2p. (Especially when screen...

To elaborate: You should not run i2p on top of Tor (i2p-over-tor), because it puts unnecessary load on the Tor exit nodes (same reason you shouldn't torrent over tor), and also may interfere with p2p security features (because all i2p-over-tor users share the exit node IP addresses). As for tor-over...
