connection drop

[i0day]

Connection is either too slow or keep dropping after 20 seconds. It keeps search for peers forever not usable

It seems to be working well for me. It's possible that this is due to some transient network issues and will self-resolve in time. There may also be an issue that's specific to your network environment. In any case, I don't control the infrastructure that Chitchatter runs on so there's nothing that can be done on my end to address this.

Is it because of turn server? I am not sure if the nature of p2p and decentralized serveless cause it not as fast and reliable as the one with server? The connection takes more than 2 minutes to discover the peers in Local network and keeps dropping connection. I tried spectrum home internet and T-Mobile as well. I am not sure if it is the isp problem.

It's hard to say exactly. I don't have these issues, and I don't have a way of diagnosing what you're experiencing. What I can tell you is that Chitchatter currently uses https://www.expressturn.com/ (free tier) as its TURN server (which is needed to enable P2P connections under some network conditions), and its performance may not be the best (especially for some geographical locations). #112 is an open request for a better TURN resource from the community, as I am unable to provide it myself.

Sorry to hear this isn't working well for you. Hopefully somebody is able to come forward to provide a better server for the project!
