12:55:07 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: Does Monero-GUI have any functionality for working with TOR and I2p nodes? You just need to specify a proxy for them to work. I turned on the Monero-GUI and the wallet started syncing. It seemed strange to me. I look in the settings and the proxy is not enabled. There is 1 node in the remote nodes, but judging by the traffic (I checked later), the connection went to another node. It feels like montero has memorized the old 12:55:07 settings and started using them. It is also interesting that the traffic actually went through this connection. 12:55:07 "I had a tunnel to" 12:55:07 Come again? 12:55:07 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: 1 remout node is not from clearnet 12:55:07 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: Oh, I found the problem. I had a tunnel to a remote node on port 127.0.0.1:18089 (I'm using a different connection configuration now) and when launching Monero-GUI, the connection settings were reset once again, but for some reason the application decided to connect to this socket itself..... 12:56:07 Explain where this tunnel is configured 12:58:10 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: I2p 12:58:10 I still have no idea what youre referring to 12:58:52 "I found the problem" 12:58:52 Where 13:01:42 "For some strange reason it decided to connect to this socket by itself" 13:01:42 127.0.0.1:18089 implies youre running a local node. 13:01:42 You probably selected local node instead of remote node.. then realized and selected the remote node 13:12:29 hello 14:33:18 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: Yeah, of course I chose a local node, and the traffic over i2p in megabytes then from where? I have never synced the blockchain on this device 14:33:18 There is no preset for 18089 14:33:19 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: I launched the blockchain locally. It creates sockets on 18080 18081 18082 ports (as usual). But as I understand it, there is a preset for 18089 (it is also one of the standard ones), so it connects to a remote node confusing it with a local one... what u think? In your opinion, could this have happened? 14:33:19 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: I didn't download it* 14:33:19 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: I will try to say otherwise....

(full message at ) 14:39:04 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: However, when I changed the i2p tunnel to 18099, the connection did not happen. It wrote that I was disconnected from the network. Then I returned the tunnel to port 18089 again and the connection began to appear again when the application was launched 14:39:04 Are you starting monerod directly? What config or flags are you using 14:43:15 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: I just click on the gui icon 14:43:15 With nothing entered into the "startup flags" field on the node settings page? 14:44:18 Im totally confused what youre even trying to do? 14:47:23 "I want to setup I2p for "... (full message at ) 14:47:34 s//]/ 15:07:43 ZHOSKA[xmpp]: I know how to do it all. I came here to tell you that if the "remote node" setting is selected, but the socket 127.0.0.1:18089 is open, then Monero-GUI connects to it by default, although it was not asked about it 15:07:43 I follow you up until... (full message at ) 15:09:43 - Monero gui using `local node` mode = 127.0.0.1:18081 by default 15:09:43 - Monero gui using `remote node` = whatever node you added 15:09:43 - monerod without startup flags = 18089 binding doesnt exist
