Stability of your internet connection directly affects your node’s performance.

Issues That You May Encounter

If your connection is unstable, your node might experience the following problems:
  • Inability to connect to Fortytwo network
  • Inconsistency with winning in inference rounds due to your node being unable to send its responses on time
  • Diminishing winrate when large complex questions arise in the network
  • Errors while downloading or updating models
  • Issues with application updates
These issues mostly occur in regions where restrictions to internet access and services are in place.

Possible solutions

  • VPN: While we can’t guarantee that a VPN will solve these issues, we encourage testing various services and assessing results. Yet sometimes, if you encounter issues while already using VPN, turning it off might solve the issue.
  • Report your issues: If your issues still persist, visit our #tech-support channel on the official Fortytwo Discord server or fill out the support form using the send bug report button in the right-click menu in your system tray.
