Comment:
An update on this: users with symmetric NATs still have a very poor
experience with snowflake. I'm working towards a solution that will have
the broker match clients with restricted NATs with proxies on unrestricted
NATs. Here's a start to that, with a common NAT discovery utility and an
example of integration at the client:
https://github.com/cohosh/snowflake/pull/31
My next steps will be to:
- implement NAT discovery on standalone proxies
- modify the heuristics on web-based proxies
- modify the broker to perform the updated proxy-matching
