How to choose a suitable Clash subscription configuration?

Choosing a subscription configuration that is stable, efficient, and suitable for your usage scenario is more important than simply pursuing "cheap and many nodes". This guide will take you step by step to pick a reliable service from core evaluation dimensions to actual purchase and trial process.

Core dimensions for choosing a subscription

1. Stability

• Uptime remains at 95%+, with rare large-scale long-term interruptions;
• Transparent fault announcements and recovery records, fast response.
• Video playback does not lag during 20:00–22:00 at night;
• Download/opening web pages does not slow down significantly, delay and jitter are acceptable.

2. Node Quality

• Popular regions: HK/JP/SG/US/TW and other popular areas;
• Provide different types of entry lines to improve route fault tolerance;
• Unlock streaming media and AI nodes (such as Netflix/Disney+/YouTube, chatGPT, Gemini).

3. Pre-sales and After-sales

• At least one accessible channel such as ticket/email;
• Pre-sales reply clearly, after-sales do not "disappear";
• Have a status page or announcement channel to notify maintenance and changes in advance.

4. Package and Price

• Monthly payment first if possible, consider long-term package after stable observation for a long time
• Reasonable traffic and speed limit labeling, no exaggerated publicity, there are many fake dedicated lines;
• Monthly payment first for usual purchase, consider long-term plan when encountering activities, do not impulse spend.

How to choose for different usage scenarios

Office and Remote Collaboration

• Financial transactions / Remote desktop and other high real-time requirements: Priority dedicated line
• Daily materials, emails, document collaboration: High-quality BGP relay is enough

Audio and Video Entertainment

• BGP relay subscription price is moderate, streaming media unlocking and peak viewing experience are balanced, covering international streaming media services

Gaming/Live Streaming

• Not recommended. Games have extremely high requirements for delay and stability, any jitter may cause disconnection, please choose a professional game accelerator. Live streaming requires more stable customized routes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Is the package speed limit of 100Mbps enough?

Generally enough for home and office scenarios: 4K video usually requires about 25Mbps, meetings and remote desktops can also be satisfied. If multiple people download large traffic at the same time or NAS remote scenarios, consider higher speed limits.

Q2: The more nodes the better?

Not necessarily. The key lies in node quality and peak performance. Dozens of general quality nodes are not as good as a small number of high-quality nodes.

Q3: How many devices are more suitable to support?

Look at actual usage. Individuals usually use 2–3 devices; families or multi-terminal offices choose 5 or more, pay attention to simultaneous online restrictions.

Q4: Why does it occasionally malfunction?

Links have uncontrollable factors. Preparing backup subscriptions and switching strategies is a more realistic solution.

Q5: Can all streaming media and AI be unlocked?

Strategies of different service providers and node regions are different, and platforms may adjust identification rules. Try the target platform before purchasing to confirm availability.
