+# How does it work
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+TinyFecVPN uses FEC(Forward Error Correction) to reduce packet loss rate, at the cost of addtional bandwidth. The algorithm for FEC is called Reed-Solomon.

+### Restriction
|
|
|
|
|
|
-There is currently an intended restriction at client side.You cant use tinyFecVPN to access a third server directly.So,as a connection speed-up tool,when used alone,it only allows you to speed-up your connection to your server.You cant use it to bypass network firewalls directly.

To bypass this restriction,you have to disable it by modifying source code,and re-compile by yourself.
