CTC2 Features - VLESS + Reality, Carrier Routing & 10+

Protocol & Connection Architecture

CTC2 is built entirely on modern, detection-resistant infrastructure — no legacy protocols, no relay hops.

VLESS Protocol

VLESS is a lightweight, stateless proxy protocol with lower overhead than older alternatives. It carries no unnecessary encryption baggage of its own, relying instead on the transport layer for security.

Reality (TLS Camouflage)

Reality lets CTC2 nodes present a real, verifiable TLS certificate from an innocuous destination site, making proxy traffic far harder to fingerprint than traditional TLS-in-TLS or self-signed setups.

Zero Relay Architecture

Every CTC2 node is a direct-connection exit — there is no intermediate relay hop absorbing bandwidth or adding round-trip latency between your client and the destination network.

Carrier-Aware Path Selection

CTC2's routing layer recognizes which Chinese carrier you're connecting from and automatically prefers the peering path that carrier performs best over.

Carrier-Aware Routing, Explained

China Telecom users route via CN2 GIA, reaching Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, the US, and Europe over Telecom's premium peering backbone — widely regarded as the most consistent path for Telecom lines.

China Unicom users route via AS9929, covering Hong Kong, Japan, the US, and Europe through Unicom's dedicated high-priority ASN, avoiding the congestion common on Unicom's standard consumer routes.

China Mobile users route via CMI (China Mobile International), reaching Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and Taiwan through Mobile's own international backbone rather than a shared third-party path.

This carrier detection happens automatically — you don't need to manually pick a route. The subscription config simply resolves to the best-performing path for the network you're actually on.

Get Started

Regional Coverage

CTC2 nodes span ten-plus regions so you can pick an exit point that matches what you're actually trying to reach.

Asia-Pacific

Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, and Malaysia give you low-latency exits for regional streaming, gaming, and browsing across East and Southeast Asia.

Americas

US nodes are available on all three carrier routes (CN2 GIA, AS9929, CMI) for services and content that specifically require a US exit point.

Europe

Germany, the UK, and the Netherlands round out the European footprint, useful for EU-region services and GDPR-relevant content access.

South Asia

India nodes extend coverage further, giving South Asia-focused workflows a dedicated regional option.

Features FAQ

Plain self-signed TLS setups are relatively easy for deep packet inspection to flag as anomalous. Reality instead borrows the real certificate of a legitimate site, so the handshake looks identical to normal traffic to that site — making CTC2 connections far more resistant to active probing.

No. The routing logic is baked into how each node resolves for your network — you just import the subscription URL for your plan into a compatible client and connect.

Both. Higher tiers (Foundation Building, Golden Core) include a higher peak-speed cap in addition to a larger monthly data allowance, on top of the same zero-relay direct architecture used at every tier.
