Sorry for the late response. Do you still have Freenet installed? Is the node 
announcing? There's an alert on the homepage about it. Click on it for more 
details. Click on the config page, click on advanced options, click on 
fproxy, there is an option called enable advanced mode, enable that, go to 
the bottom and click apply. Then go back to the alerts page and show me the 
full text of the announcing alert. Thanks.

Are there any other alerts e.g. about port forwarding, UDP connectivity, etc? 
What kind of internet connection do you have?

It might be an MTU problem (the packets used to bootstrap opennet are rather 
large). If so, we could try a direct darknet connection; if that works, 
hopefully opennet will bootstrap itself from that.

Thanks.
