Hey three,

Nothing happening at the network interface level should be capable of
affecting the functionality of either obfs3 or obfs4.  It sounds to me like
you might be having some issue with your local router setup, like perhaps a
NAT table messing something up somewhere, based on you statements that using
ethernet had better luck that using wifi.  I can't really imagine any way t=
hat
a censor would be able to determine whether you're using ethernet/wifi and
censor your connections differently based upon said information.  (If they =
can
do this, then something is horribly, horribly wrong with your wifi router!)

Best of luck,
