Xuanfeng Accelerator V3.2 Released with Hong Kong Node Expansion
On September 15, 2026, Xuanfeng Accelerator officially pushed version V3.2. Over the past months, the most frequent feedback was that gaming, streaming and downloading on the same device would degrade each other on a single tunnel. The core of V3.2 is bringing "split routing" into the client so different traffic takes different optimal paths.
Version V3.1 focused on stability, but the architecture still used "one connection for all traffic". The obvious problem: when you download a large file while gaming, the download traffic squeezes real-time game packets, causing latency spikes. The industry's mature solution is "per-app routing", but most products turn it into a complex manual rule table. V3.2 makes smart routing enabled by default with no configuration.
1. What problem this update solves
Smart routing relies on a local traffic-identification engine. The client identifies app types locally — gaming, streaming, web, download — and assigns each type a tunnel with a different priority. Gaming goes through low-latency lines, downloads through high-throughput lines, neither competing. Identification happens entirely locally, with no app usage records uploaded, consistent with our privacy commitment.
Alongside smart routing is the Hong Kong node expansion. Hong Kong is a key relay between Southeast Asia and the mainland, and its average load stayed above 85% over the past year, hitting 95% at peak. V3.2 adds 16 servers on top of the original 40, a 40% expansion, and upgrades access bandwidth.
2. Three key updates
First, smart routing: the local engine covers over 200 mainstream apps and games with no configuration. Second, Hong Kong expansion: 16 new servers, bandwidth up from 40Gbps to 64Gbps. Third, protocol optimization: the default protocol switch logic is adjusted, and reconnect speed on WiFi/mobile switching improved by about 45%.
| Item | Details | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Smart routing | Local app identification, split tunnels | Game spikes -70% |
| Hong Kong nodes | +16 servers, 40→64Gbps | Load down to 62% |
| Protocol switch | Reconnect optimization | +45% speed |
We ran a two-week gray test covering 120,000 users. With smart routing enabled, game latency spikes (P99) in the "download + gaming" scenario dropped from 210ms to 68ms, a 67.6% decrease. Hong Kong average latency dropped from 42ms to 31ms.
3. How to upgrade and feedback
Existing users receive an upgrade prompt, or can manually download from the download center. The upgrade preserves settings and requires no re-login. Windows and macOS are fully rolled out; Android and iOS will follow this week.
"The most obvious change is that downloading while gaming no longer lags, latency stays under 40 instead of spiking to 200." — feedback from user "Lily" in Shenzhen.
| Scenario | Before P99 | After P99 |
|---|---|---|
| Pure gaming | 96ms | 52ms |
| Download + gaming | 210ms | 68ms |
| 4K streaming | 3 buffers/h | 0 buffers/h |
V3.2 is an "experience" update without aggressive feature stacking, but it solidifies the routing and expansion that matter most. Back to the "download while playing" pain point: now Xuanfeng silently separates game packets from download traffic. Next, we plan to extend smart routing to "per-destination auto-routing". To try it, VPN download the latest client.

Downloading while in meetings no longer lags, and Hong Kong nodes are clearly more stable.
Smart routing is a blessing for downloading games while playing, framerate and latency both stable.
Hong Kong expansion fixed peak-hour congestion, streaming is smooth now.
