How to Switch to the StormyCloud Outproxy Service

=================================================

**{% trans %}A New, Professional Outproxy{% endtrans %}**

|

For years, I2P has been served by a single default outproxy, `false.i2p`
|
||
whose reliability has been degrading. Although several competitors
|
||
have emerged to take up some of the slack, they are mostly unable to
|
||
volunteer to serve the clients of an entire I2P implementation by
|
||
default. However, StormyCloud, a professional, non-profit organization
|
||
which runs Tor exit nodes, has started a new, professional outproxy
|
||
service which has been tested by members of the I2P community and which
|
||
will become the new default outproxy in the upcoming release.

Hardware
|
||
We own all of our hardware and currently colocate at a Tier 4 data center. As of now have a 10GBps uplink with the option to upgrade to 40GBps without the need for much change. We have our own ASN and IP space (IPv4 & IPv6).

|
||
To switch to the StormyCloud outproxy *today* you can visit `the Hidden Services Manager
|
||
<http://127.0.0.1:7657/i2ptunnel/edit?tunnel=0>`_. Once you're there, you should change
|
||
the value of **Outproxies** and **SSL Outproxies** to `exit.stormycloud.i2p`. Once you
|
||
have done this, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the "Save" button.
