I2P+ is an enhanced version of the Java I2P anonymizing network platform that delivers superior user experience and improved network performance while maintaining full compatibility with upstream I2P.
Yes, I2P+ is 100% compatible with standard I2P. It maintains all cryptographic protocols and network standards, allowing seamless communication with regular I2P routers.
Download the latest i2pupdate.zip file and copy it to your I2P application folder, then restart the router. I2P will automatically extract and install the update.
Yes, you can easily restore standard I2P by installing the official I2P update. It's recommended to backup your I2P+ installation before switching.
I2P+ requires Java 8 or later. Recommended minimum system specifications:
To obtain release updates of I2P+, the recommended method is to add the I2P-only torrent URL to I2PSnark, and when downloaded, manually copy the i2pupdate.zip file to your application folder.
It's recommended to enable the Update with Unsigned Development builds option on the router updates page, and optionally replace the default release version URL http://skank.i2p/i2pupdate.zip with the development branch URL http://skank.i2p/dev/i2pupdate.zip for rolling release builds.
Note: To avoid updating to vanilla I2P releases, set the Update Policy to Notify only on the updates page. You'll be notified in the console sidebar when an I2P+ update is available.
