AetherST Tunnel

Advanced, high-performance censorship circumvention client for Android and Windows.

A production-grade VPN and Proxy client engineered to provide secure and stable connectivity in highly restricted network environments. Combines the Aether Core with proven tunnel engines to resist Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and protocol-based blocking across platforms.

Features

- Stealth Connectivity: optimised to bypass protocol fingerprinting and DPI. - Advanced Transports: MASQUE (HTTP/3 and HTTP/2), WireGuard, Gool (WG-in-WG), and Cloudflare Zero Trust. - Psiphon Chain: optional second layer routing through Psiphon for a non-Iran exit IP, chainable over MASQUE, WireGuard, or Gool with Auto, Fallback, and Always modes. - Tor Chain: optional second layer using the Tor built into Aether Core v2.0.0, with Tor-inside-tunnel, tunnel-through-Tor, and Tor-only modes plus automatic BridgeDB bridges. - MASQUE-in-MASQUE: a MASQUE tunnel carried inside another MASQUE tunnel, changing the exit address on the MASQUE carrier. - Intelligent Scanning: real-time gateway discovery with data-plane validation before connecting. - Native Performance: high-throughput core for low latency and high bandwidth. - Multi-Platform UI: clean, iOS-inspired dashboard built with Compose Multiplatform for mobile and desktop. - Developer-Ready: built-in diagnostics, real-time logging, and flexible protocol presets.

Supported Protocols

- MASQUE (HTTP/3 and HTTP/2): tunnels traffic over QUIC or TLS so VPN traffic resembles standard web browsing. - WireGuard: modern VPN protocol with state-of-the-art cryptography, optimised for speed and battery life. - Gool (Warp-in-Warp / WG-in-WG): nested WireGuard configuration adding an extra layer of encryption and obfuscation. - Cloudflare Zero Trust (Teams): routes traffic through Cloudflare's global network using Gateway filtering and Service Tokens. - Psiphon Chain: optional second layer built on the open-source Psiphon tunnel core, with selectable egress region and local SOCKS and HTTP endpoints. - Tor Chain: built-in Tor implementation with automatic BridgeDB bridges and pluggable transports (obfs4, snowflake, webtunnel, meek). - MASQUE-in-MASQUE: nested MASQUE transport with automatic inner hop selection.

Architecture

- Aether Core (v2.0.0): orchestration layer for encrypted tunnel management, gateway health checks, multi-protocol handling, and built-in Tor with automatic bridges. - HEV SOCKS5 Tunnel v2.17.1: native bridge between the system and Aether, with a mature user-space TCP/IP stack and efficient UDP-over-SOCKS5 translation. - Psiphon Tunnel Core v2.0.41: optional second-layer circumvention engine providing foreign exit IPs. - Compose Multiplatform UI: shared UI layer between Android and Windows with Kotlin Flows and native system integrations.
