Is it me? (ongoing server issues during peak times)

CF Warp can also tunnel traffic via Cloudflare (using the Wireguard protocol, specifically Cloudflare’s own implementation “BoringTun”), and that’s the default setting, at least for the beta client I tried. So it basically acts like a VPN (I verified this by checking my outgoing IP address).

I couldn’t figure out what the business model is, I got the impression that it’s just a “helper” tool for enterprise customers of their “Cloudflare Zero Trust” product, or maybe for the “one.one.one.one App”, whatever that is.

For reference: https://blog.cloudflare.com/warp-for-desktop/

WARP was built on the philosophy that even people who don’t know what “VPN” stands for should be able to still easily get the protection a VPN offers. […] The WARP application uses BoringTun to encrypt all the traffic from your device and send it directly to Cloudflare’s edge […]

By the way, I managed to start the ATPL test using my ISP (no Warp). This was the result:

Thanks, Jörg.
