Iran has two dominant mobile networks. Both operate under deep packet inspection systems that make the choice of VPN app more important here than in most other countries. Read the network sections below before downloading.
MCI (Hamrahe Aval) free internet
Config files for MCI Iran
MCI (Hamrahe Aval) is Iran's largest and oldest mobile operator, owned by the state-linked Telecommunication Infrastructure Company. It runs 4G LTE in Tehran, Isfahan, Mashhad and other major cities. Ha Tunnel Plus is the recommended primary app for Iran given the country's deep packet inspection environment.
| Config file | App | Type | Variant | Status | Verified | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MCI Ha Tunnel Config | Ha Tunnel Plus | .hat | SSH tunnel · 2–8 Mbps · recommended | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
| MCI HTTP Custom Config | HTTP Custom | .hc | Faster but less resilient | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
💡 Ha Tunnel recommended over HTTP Custom in Iran: Iran's national network uses deep packet inspection (DPI) that can identify and throttle standard HTTP proxy traffic. Ha Tunnel Plus's SSH tunnel over port 443 is significantly more resilient to DPI-based filtering.
Irancell (MTN) free internet
Config files for Irancell
Irancell is Iran's second-largest operator and is part-owned by MTN Group. Its 4G network is strong in Tehran and the north-west. Irancell's proxy environment differs from MCI, so use the Irancell-specific configs below.
| Config file | App | Type | Variant | Status | Verified | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Irancell Ha Tunnel Config | Ha Tunnel Plus | .hat | SSH tunnel · 2–8 Mbps · recommended | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
| Irancell HTTP Custom Config | HTTP Custom | .hc | Faster but less resilient in IR | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
Guide
How to get free internet
Iran has one of the most sophisticated internet filtering systems in the world, operated through a combination of the national SHOMA filtering system and deep packet inspection equipment deployed at the carrier level. This context makes Iran different from every other country on VPN4Pros: Ha Tunnel Plus should be your primary app here, not your fallback.
Standard HTTP Custom configs are more easily identified by Iran's DPI systems because they operate at the HTTP proxy layer, which is well-understood and actively monitored. Ha Tunnel Plus routes traffic via SSH over port 443, which looks identical to normal HTTPS website traffic to DPI equipment. This makes it far harder to selectively block without disrupting all secure web browsing for Iranian users.
When HTTP Custom still makes sense in Iran
There are periods when internet filtering enforcement is lighter, and during these windows HTTP Custom can deliver noticeably faster speeds (5–18 Mbps vs Ha Tunnel's 2–8 Mbps). Experienced Iranian users keep both configs installed and switch between them based on current filtering intensity. If you experience slow or blocked connections on HTTP Custom, switch to Ha Tunnel immediately rather than troubleshooting the HTTP config.
