UDPspeeder v20230206.0 releases: Network Speed-Up Tool

UDPspeeder

Network Speed-Up Tool. Boost your Connection on a High Latency High Packet-Loss Link by using Forward Error Correction.

When used alone, UDPspeeder speeds-up only UDP connection. Nevertheless, if you used UDPspeeder + any UDP-based VPN together, you can speed-up any traffic(include TCP/UDP/ICMP), currently, OpenVPN/L2TP/ShadowVPN are confirmed to be supported。

or

Assume your local network to your server is lossy. Just establish a VPN connection to your server with UDPspeeder + any UDP-based VPN, access your server via this VPN connection, then your connection quality will be significantly improved. With well-tuned parameters, you can easily reduce IP or UDP/ICMP packet-loss-rate to less than 0.01%. Besides reducing packet-loss-rate, UDPspeeder can also significantly improve your TCP latency and TCP single-thread download speed.

How does it work

UDPspeeder uses FEC(Forward Error Correction) to reduce packet loss rate, at the cost of additional bandwidth. The algorithm for FEC is called Reed-Solomon.

Reed-Solomon

In coding theory, the Reed–Solomon code belongs to the class of non-binary cyclic error-correcting codes. The Reed–Solomon code is based on univariate polynomials over finite fields.

It is able to detect and correct multiple symbol errors. By adding t check symbols to the data, a Reed–Solomon code can detect any combination of up to t erroneous symbols, or correct up to ⌊t/2⌋ symbols. As an erasure code, it can correct up to t known erasures, or it can detect and correct combinations of errors and erasures. Reed–Solomon codes are also suitable as multiple-burst bit-error correcting codes since a sequence of b + 1 consecutive bit errors can affect at most two symbols of size b. The choice of t is up to the designer of the code and may be selected within wide limits.

Running (speed-up UDP only)

Assume your server ip is 44.55.66.77, you have a service listening on UDP port 7777.

# Run at server side:

./speederv2 -s -l0.0.0.0:4096 -r 127.0.0.1:7777 -f20:10 -k “passwd”

# Run at client side

./speederv2 -c -l0.0.0.0:3333 -r44.55.66.77:4096 -f20:10 -k “passwd”

Now connecting to UDP port 3333 at the client side is equivalent to connecting to port 7777 at the server side, and the connection has been boosted by UDPspeeder.

Note

-f20:10 means sending 10 redundant packets for every 20 original packets.

-k enables simple XOR encryption

Note2

You can use udp2raw with UDPspeeder together to get better speed on some ISP with UDP QoS(UDP throttling).
