Key point
Choose the right operating system, CPU architecture and package format, then verify the downloaded source.
Check before you begin
Save a known-good configuration first and run the initial test on one stable network.
Follow this order
- 01Back up the current configuration and note one node that works.
- 02Confirm the client version, system architecture and download source.
- 03Change only one setting at a time, then test the connection again.
- 04Open a familiar website and inspect the log for repeated errors.
How to verify the result
The client should start normally, refresh the subscription, establish a real node connection and route direct and proxied traffic as expected.
Completion checklistThe client core starts normallySubscription time and node list look correctDirect and proxied pages both pass a testThe log has no continuously repeated errors
What to avoid
Do not change several options without a backup, and do not judge a route by its name or a single Ping result. Cross-check important releases with project release information.
