Might depend on provider? I have a single endpoint and no such issues. Transferring multiple GBs on some days. I'm using a custom protocol though that's basically udp but with the tcp protocol number in the ip next protocol field. I'm simply ignoring any injected rst packets etc.

Yes, depends on a lot of factors like provider (different telecoms have different network settings/policies), location (GFW is multi-tiered with at least provincial boundaries, certain cities/provinces might have tighter control/policies), time/date (e.g. sensitive periods), etc. But what I'm saying is that traffic analysis is really effective. A single IP with multiple GBs on a day is on the low end and thus probably fine. GFW target potential VPN-like services which have much higher aggregate traffic over a period of time. If you have higher traffic it could trigger IP bans regardless of your custom protocol. I had custom servers setup like yours before and they die mysteriously sometimes so I had to rotate once in a while on new IPs.

I very rarely had outages of half a minute to two or three minutes, and every time I feared it was an ip ban. Wouldn't be too bad though, I have access to most of an /24. I had silly ideas like load balancing across multiple ips, but as a custom protocol is already standing out, I wonder how much louder I could scream "here I am" :)
