How to use Cloudflare Warp Plus on your PC

@Looney I hope some resolution comes about for you soon, but I also had weird problems with some international servers and YouTube of all things, using both their apps and hand-generated configs (examples included Google Drive going from 80mbps to 2mbps, YouTube hovering at 4-6mbps, and some of my foreign friend's hosted servers taking absolutely forever to resolve, it did work well for IPTV though but eventually I think Cloudflare blocked the domains so it was useless).

While definitely pricier, I haven't had issues with a self-hosted V2ray server and was able to get some great peering and latency to international traffic, a little worse than an optimal Warp+ but better than most VPNs.

If you are getting those speeds without help, then you are just greedy

Ya but that’s local. It does the same with international and I get even less international. Isn’t the whole point of cloudflare warp+ to help increase international speeds not decrease it.

No but I’m happy to pay for it depending on cost. I did purchase warp+ for my iPhone but I think I cancelled it because I didn’t really see any benefits.

Okay let me drop you one of mine and see what you think about it. It's R30 per month and allows 5 devices which is not bad. So it can allow 5 x wireguard configurations :)

That would be amazing! I only have 3 devices I would need to set it up on.
 
I see my Warp also now only says warp=on, it definitely always said warp=plus.
 
Is it possible to manipulate the end point? e.g. i want to go to JHB instead of CT?
 
Ive come across a weird problem with Cloudflare Warp. VoIP stops working :/ Any idea why this is?

Okay first question is did this just start recently or have you only now used Warp with VoIP?

Now:
Which VoIP client? Does it require an open port? Some VoIP services do, and it generally works without config change due to UpNP opening the port for the server automatically on the router. A VPN generally does not support opening specific ports (some do, Warp does not)

It could also be endpoint edge router drops the request because it uses IP whitelisting.

Try provide as much info as you can, because there's a lot that could be causing it?

I only noticed it today.

Backstory.

I used to have a VoIP client (MicroSIP) on my laptop, but moved it to a spare mobile phone. When I used to have it on my laptop it worked fine.

So the other day I decide to move the VoIP client back to my laptop and it wouldnt connect. At all. I contacted my VoIP provider (Wantel) and they informed me that they were getting no connection attempts from my side. I sent them my logs and they said there was a DNS resolution error so they gave me the IP to use instead.

I put in the IP and still my requests timed out. It would not connect. Then I realized I had Cloudflare Warp running and I disabled it. Instantly the SIP client connected.

I have just tried the SIP client while running a normal VPN and its able to connect without any issues. So its definitely something specific to Cloudflare Warp.

Are you using Warp.app or the Wireguard open sourced client? Try disabling killswitch/LAN isolation and try

Failing that it could be because Warp passes through the IP header containing your real IP, but does not do so on UDP and even sometimes in HTTP requests that don't read the IP header and only log the IP the socket was requested from which makes the end service not see the request

This is something unique to Warp because Warp passes the IP header where another VPNs the origin IP is never sent for "anonymity"
