UDPspeeder VS SyncTrayzor

It's been a while since I set it up, but iirc I ended up going with https://github.com/wangyu-/UDPspeeder

Pretty sure I used the suggested config and it's been working flawlessly in the background.

Or something like that. With wireguard, it's just a matter of pointing the config at the local socket for the fec tunnel (or any other type of tunnel, there was a dicussion about making it look like TCP http traffic the other day), so it's pretty much plug and play.

I just use nbd-server, nbd-client (kernel module nbd). While at home things are fine, when not at home things can get bad unless you use something like UDPspeeder <https://github.com/wangyu-/UDPspeeder> then you just need to deal with slower speeds.

I do backups with borg while connected through ethernet.

The good news is you can implement some kind of ghetto error-correction at a higher level. Set up a tunnel to your pbx with a VPN which supports FEC -- something like UDPspeeder and configure it to send duplicates or triplicates of every packet. In this case, you're sacrificing bandwidth to improve reliability.

All it needs is a bit of reed solomon encoding in the transport for additional reliability https://github.com/wangyu-/UDPspeeder

I would use syncthing, which is open source at https://syncthing.net/.

After minimal setup, it just works(tm).

You have a normal directory in your filesystem, that is synced to the other peers (which you set up in the "minimal setup").

I have been using it for years, and it works well. It has no problems crossing os'es (i.e. windows -> linux, linux -> mac)

For windows I usually recommend https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor, but vanilla syncthing works fine too (but don't try to mix them!)

for windows though, i have the "synctrayzor" version, which basically just meanas it runs with an icon in the bottom right corner. https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor

I love it, plus there is a GUI wrapper for it: https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor

1 - Install SyncThing on my main Windows PC (through SyncTrayzor so that it can start on windows startup)

Ah, something extremely similar affects SyncTrayzor on Windows too! https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor/issues/760

If you are on Windows, are you using SyncTrayzor? Doesn't require setting up Syncthing as a service.

I have used Synctraysor for years, and absolutely love it. A little confusing at first, but once it's set up, it just works. I use it to sync 4 computers in 3 different locations. Never have to think about it. I live in Tennessee and have a second home in Illinois. They sync automatically so I neve have to think about it.

I have been using SyncThing via SyncTrayzor for over a decade on Windows. It is self-hosted, so I would suggest picking a high-capacity central point.
