This guide will help you quickly set up V2Ray on Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS. We'll cover the most convenient and popular clients for each platform, so you can get connected in just a few clicks.

Getting Your Connection Link

You can get your personal connection link from your account page: https://aes128.com/en/account/ in the "VPN" section. When generating a link, we recommend using the VLESS protocol for the best performance and reliability.
