HTTP Custom config files for Jio

● Working Apr 2026

HTTP Custom is the most reliable app for free internet on Jio. Two config variants are available · unlimited (no data cap, moderate speed) and 500MB (capped, faster speed).

Config file App Type Variant Status Verified Download
Jio Unlimited Config .hc HTTP Custom Unlimited data · 1–5 Mbps Working Apr 2026 ↓ Download
Jio 500MB Config .hc HTTP Custom 500MB cap · 10–20 Mbps Working Apr 2026 ↓ Download

💡 Which to choose? Start with the 500MB config for faster speeds. If it disconnects frequently, switch to the Unlimited config. The Super Fast variant works best on Jio 4G · results may vary on Jio 5G.

SSH Websocket config for Airtel
SSH Websocket routes your traffic through port 443 · the same port used by HTTPS websites · making it almost impossible for Airtel to detect or block. Unlike standard HTTP proxy configs, Websocket connections look like normal encrypted web traffic to Airtel's network equipment. This makes SSH Websocket configs significantly more durable, often working for weeks after standard configs have been patched.

HTTP Custom config files for Vi

● Working Apr 2026

Vi (formerly Vodafone India and Idea) uses a different network structure from Jio and Airtel. Make sure to use the Vi-specific config files below · Jio or Airtel configs will not work on a Vi SIM.

BSNL

Config files for BSNL India

● Limited

BSNL is India's government-owned telecom network. Config file support is limited compared to Jio, Airtel and Vi · here is why, and what your options are.

Why BSNL is harder to target

BSNL runs on government-managed infrastructure that differs fundamentally from private carriers like Jio and Airtel. Unlike private networks that use standardised proxy-friendly configurations, BSNL's network equipment varies significantly by region and circle · what works in Maharashtra may not work in Uttar Pradesh.

BSNL also has no uniform open port structure. Jio and Airtel have predictable ports that config files exploit. BSNL does not, making it much harder to build a config file that works reliably across all subscribers.

Best option for BSNL users
Request a config specific to your BSNL circle. Tell us your state/region when submitting · this is the most important factor for BSNL config compatibility.
Alternative
If you have a secondary Jio or Airtel SIM, use that for free internet. BSNL's pricing is already among the cheapest in India, making the data cost difference smaller than on private networks.
Request BSNL config → Include your state and BSNL circle for best results. Usually fulfilled within 48–72 hours.

Guide

How to get free internet in India

India has four major mobile networks · Jio, Airtel, Vi (Vodafone Idea) and BSNL · each with a different network architecture. This matters because a config file that works on Jio will not work on Airtel, and vice versa. Always download the config file that matches your SIM card's network.

HTTP Custom is the dominant app across all Indian networks. It uses .hc config files that reroute your mobile data through proxy servers, bypassing ISP data restrictions. The technique exploits specific open ports in each carrier's network · which is why Jio and Airtel have separate config files.

Jio vs Airtel · what is the difference?

Jio configs typically come in two variants: unlimited (no cap, slower speeds of 1–5 Mbps) and 500MB (capped data, much faster speeds of 10–20 Mbps). Most users prefer the 500MB config and reconnect when the cap is reached. Airtel supports more VPN apps than Jio, including HTTP Injector, Ha Tunnel Plus and the SSH Websocket method, which routes through port 443 and is significantly more durable than standard proxy configs.

How to import a config file · step by step

1
Download the app · Install HTTP Custom from the Google Play Store. Make sure you have the latest version.
2
Download the config file · Choose your network (Jio, Airtel or Vi) from the sections above and download the .hc file to your phone.
3
Open HTTP Custom · Tap the three-line menu icon in the top left of the app.
4
Import the config · Select "Import Config", navigate to the downloaded .hc file, and tap it to import.
5
Connect · Tap the large Connect button. A notification will confirm the connection. You are now browsing for free.

When configs stop working

Indian ISPs patch free internet configs regularly, usually after software updates to their network equipment. When a config stops working, check the status table above for an updated file, or subscribe to our email updates to be notified automatically. Jio configs typically last 2–4 weeks. Airtel SSH Websocket configs can last significantly longer.

FAQ

Questions about free internet in India

Answers to the most common questions from Indian users.

Which VPN app works best on Jio? +
HTTP Custom is by far the most effective VPN app for Jio free internet. It uses .hc config files that exploit Jio's network architecture. Two variants are available · unlimited and 500MB · with the 500MB file offering significantly faster speeds. HTTP Injector is a good fallback if HTTP Custom stops working.
What is the difference between the Jio unlimited and 500MB config files? +
The unlimited .hc config file has no data cap but runs at reduced speeds, typically 1–5 Mbps. The 500MB variant is capped at 500MB per session but delivers much faster speeds, sometimes reaching 10–20 Mbps. Most users prefer the 500MB file and reconnect when needed. The Super Fast variant is optimised for maximum speed but may expire more quickly.
What is SSH Websocket and why does it work better on Airtel? +
SSH Websocket routes your traffic through port 443 · the same port used by all HTTPS websites. Airtel's network equipment cannot easily block port 443 without disrupting normal browsing. Unlike standard proxy configs that work on predictable ports, SSH Websocket traffic looks identical to regular encrypted web traffic. This makes it far harder to detect and patch, resulting in configs that can last weeks or even months.
Does HTTP Custom work on Vi (Vodafone Idea)? +
Yes, HTTP Custom works on Vi (formerly Vodafone India merged with Idea Cellular). Use the Vi-specific .hc config file from the Vi section above. Do not use a Jio or Airtel config on a Vi SIM · each network requires its own config file. Vi configs are available for download in the Vi section of this page.
Why does my Jio or Airtel config disconnect at night? +
Night-time disconnections usually occur when ISPs perform maintenance or push network updates during low-traffic hours. The proxy server used by the config file may also time out after periods of inactivity. Try reconnecting immediately · the same config usually works again. If disconnections persist, try a different server within the same config, or download the latest version of the config file from this page.
Is using a VPN for free internet legal in India? +
VPN usage is legal in India. However, using VPN config files to bypass ISP data billing restrictions exists in a legal grey area and is not officially sanctioned by Indian telecom operators. VPN4Pros provides this information for educational purposes only. Always use the internet responsibly and within applicable Indian laws.
