Because of the nature of VPN software (changing proxy settings), the anti-virus or firewall might consider it as a threat. During the installation, if you encounter any warning prompts, please choose "allow", "agree", "trust" or similar actions. Otherwise, AHAspeed will not work as it couldn't gain access to change the proxy settings.


How to use AHAspeed

  • While you try to login on a new device, if the device limit has been reached, you will get redirected to the "Unbind Device" page, from there you can unbind the devices
  • Or, you can go to "Menu" -> "App Settings" -> "Device List", click on the device to unbind it.

  • Forgot username: contact us and provide the payment record screenshot to us. 
  • Forgot password: You can click on forgot password in the app.

Global Mode: Access everything with VPN. This might slow down some local websites & apps traffic.

Split Mode: Only use VPN when accessing common GEO blocked (China firewall blocked) websites, e.g. Google, Youtube, Netflix etc. When accessing Chinese websites, use local network without VPN.

You can change the routing mode under App Settings.

  • A successful referral requires: the referee downloads and uses the app. If your referee has downloaded the app but hasn't started using the app, your referral point will not be added into your account until the referee uses the app.

Troubleshooting

One of the most common reason that MacOS can't use VPN is because you didn't allow our App to use VPN system extension.

If you encounter this issue, please delete the app and reinstall it. During installation, carefully read the prompt message and click on "Open Security Preference", "Allow" or similar action.

These are the installation steps:

1. During installation, System will prompt two popups.

The first one: "AHAspeed" would like to add VPN Configurations, click on "Allow"; The second one: "System Extension Blocked", click on "Open Security Preferences".

MacOS asks for adding vpn configurations

2. Upon click on "Open Security Preference", you will be landed on "Security & Privacy" page.

You need to: click on "Lock" icon on the bottom left corner to start making changes; If you see a System Preferences prompt, click on "Use Password" or use Touch ID to allow it.

3. Click on "Allow" near the bottom right corner (After you click on Lock icon, allow becomes clickable)

MacOS modify security & privacy settings to allow app

MacOS enter password to modify Security & Privacy Settings to allow app

 


The web version of the apps, e.g. Telegram, WhatsApp or Gmail, are using HTTPS, which is supported by split mode. The split mode can only change the routing mode for HTTP (port 80) and HTTPS (port 443). That is why you can access the web version.

For the app version, they might have used any ports. Hence you will need to do one of these steps:

  • Use "Global Mode" in routing settings
  • Change the proxy settings of the app, below is an example of changing proxy settings for LINE:

    Line app zh-hans settings

 


We have found that, some users don't know which server to use after deciding which region to use.

To make it easier for you, we decide to show region only. AHAspeed will automatically select the best performance server within your selected region for you. These are the details:

  • Location list only shows the regions. Under the hood, there are hundreds of servers within each region. Upon selecting a region, AHAspeed will connect you with the best performance server according to your network condition.
  • If you don't like the connected server, you can always disconnect and re-connect to the same region, you will be connected to a different server.
  • You can repeat above step until you are satisfied.

There are several common reasons:

  • Slow local internet (without VPN on)
  • Certain VPN server location has busy traffic

To troubleshoot the network issues, please follow the steps:

  • Check your local network speed by disconnect the VPN;
  • While keeping VPN disconnected, switch between WIFI, 4G, 5G to find the troubleshoot your network. E.g. if your wifi has poor connectivity, switch to your cellular 4G/5G.
  • Disconnect VPN, switch to another region, and connect;
  • If you like to stay in the same region, try disconnect and reconnect to the same region. Even you are selecting the same region, there are actually hundreds of servers behind a single region. Every time you connect, we will relocate a different server for you.
  • You can repeat above steps until you find the best server for you.

There might be a few minutes delay on payment gateway. It happens sometimes. These are the details:

  • We currently support: Alipay, Wechat QRCode Scanning Payment, Union Pay.
  • If the payment was successfully made, but the plan is not showing under "My Account", please wait for 5 minutes, logout and login again.
  • After above actions, if the problem persists, take a screenshot of the payment record and contact us.
