  • At the moment, Peers that are behind NAT cannot connect to gossamer network.
  • Is it important for us to take care of NAT traversal? Are most of our users (or users of polkadot) likely to be behind NAT?
  • If you do some research on various NAT Traversal protocols offered by libp2p like AutoNAT, p2p circuit relay, STUN, UPnP, etc. See which of these would make sense for us to support.
  • Check if substrate/polkadot is using any of these
