Kenya's mobile market is dominated by Safaricom, which controls roughly 65% of all mobile subscriptions. All three networks need their own config files , cross-network configs will not connect.
Safaricom free internet
Config files for Safaricom Kenya
Safaricom runs Kenya's most advanced LTE-Advanced network, which means HTTP Custom configs here can reach speeds that rival home broadband. Safaricom also patches proxy ports more aggressively than smaller carriers, so keep Ha Tunnel as a backup.
| Config file | App | Type | Variant | Status | Verified | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Safaricom Unlimited Config | HTTP Custom | .hc | Unlimited · 8–25 Mbps | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
| Safaricom Fast Config | HTTP Custom | .hc | High speed · may expire sooner | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
| Safaricom Ha Tunnel Config | Ha Tunnel Plus | .hat | SSH tunnel · 2–8 Mbps stable | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
💡 Nairobi vs upcountry: The Unlimited Config performs best in Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu where Safaricom runs 4G+ aggregated spectrum. In county towns and rural areas, switch to Ha Tunnel , it holds a stable connection on standard 4G and even strong 3G signals.
Airtel Kenya free internet
Config files for Airtel Kenya
Airtel Kenya is the strongest budget alternative to Safaricom. Its proxy port structure is less frequently patched, which means HTTP Custom configs often stay working longer here than on Safaricom.
| Config file | App | Type | Variant | Status | Verified | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Airtel Kenya Unlimited Config | HTTP Custom | .hc | Unlimited · 5–18 Mbps | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
| Airtel Kenya Ha Tunnel Config | Ha Tunnel Plus | .hat | SSH tunnel · 2–6 Mbps stable | Working | Apr 2026 | ↓ Download |
Telkom Kenya
Config files for Telkom Kenya
Telkom Kenya (formerly Orange Kenya) has the smallest subscriber base of the three networks. Config support is limited due to its regional infrastructure gaps and lower traffic volumes through proxy-accessible ports.
Telkom Kenya runs on 900MHz and 1800MHz spectrum with LTE in major cities only. Its proxy infrastructure is less standardised than Safaricom or Airtel Kenya, making it difficult to build a config that works consistently across all subscribers. Users in Nairobi often have more success than those in other counties.
If you're a Telkom Kenya subscriber, try the Airtel Kenya configs first , Telkom Kenya has a roaming arrangement with Airtel that applies in some regions and may allow the config to connect.
Guide
How to get free internet in Kenya
Kenya punches well above its weight in mobile technology. Safaricom's network is one of the most technically advanced in sub-Saharan Africa, with LTE-Advanced carrier aggregation live in Nairobi and several other cities. That same infrastructure is what makes HTTP Custom configs so effective here , fast speeds, low latency, and consistent proxy port availability on the Safaricom core network.
The practical challenge is durability. Safaricom's network operations team monitors traffic patterns and closes proxy ports more quickly than most African carriers. Expect an HTTP Custom config to last 1–3 weeks on Safaricom before needing a refresh. Ha Tunnel Plus is the recommended fallback: its SSH traffic is indistinguishable from legitimate encrypted data to Safaricom's monitoring systems.
Why Airtel Kenya configs last longer
Airtel Kenya has fewer dedicated network engineering resources than Safaricom, which means proxy ports that are exploited by these configs take longer to be identified and closed. Users who prioritise config longevity over raw speed often prefer Airtel Kenya for this reason. The trade-off is somewhat lower peak speeds and patchier coverage outside Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu.
