Chris and I are talking again, thanks all. But I would like to open the inspection to everyone here, so I’ve set a few things up.
First, since the P2P protocol itself is layered on top of TCP/IP, it’s pretty easy to at least query the P2P network through the Decentralized Wireless Alliance’s public database of the blockchain. You can access it at etl.dewi.org http://etl.dewi.org/.
https://etl.dewi.org/question/2382-amprnet-hotspots-public https://etl.dewi.org/question/2382-amprnet-hotspots-public
From here, it’s a task of going through the result set and checking TCP/IP connectivity to the port in question and observing the P2P stream header:
% telnet 44.92.55.204 44158 Trying 44.92.55.204... Connected to 44.92.55.204. Escape character is '^]'. /multistream/1.0.0

Chris, Jeremy,
Taking this off-list (again?) sounds like a receipe for further mis-understanding and mis-communication. It would seem more sensible to keep this on-list. Being on-list helps to keep things civilised, and polite, and benefits that other people can chip in as well.
Jeremy: please can you post a Shell one-liner, or other short script that allows a definite list of Helium nodes (under 44.x) to be automatically re-generated.

Can we discuss this here, as a group?
Hope so,
