Fastest route: Use our live MTProxy server list — all servers are auto-verified 24/7.
Which Method to Choose?
| Method | Difficulty | Works On | Requirements |
|---|---|---|---|
| MTProxy in Telegram | ⭐ Easy | Android TV with Telegram | Telegram from Play Store |
| NekoBox APK | ⭐⭐ Medium | Any Android TV | Enable “Unknown Sources” |
| Router-level proxy | ⭐⭐⭐ Advanced | All devices on network | Router with proxy support |
Method 1. MTProxy Directly in Telegram (Recommended)
- Open our proxy list on phone/PC and tap “Connect”
- The proxy applies automatically via Saved Messages if Telegram is on the same account
- Or manually: Settings → Data & Storage → Proxy Settings → Add Proxy → MTProto
- Enter Server, Port, and Secret (starts with
ee...for FakeTLS)
Best Servers for TV (low latency for video)

Method 2. NekoBox on Android TV (All Apps)
- Install Downloader from Google Play

- Add server config → Enable TUN mode → Connect
Disable Telegram’s built-in proxy when using NekoBox in TUN mode to avoid conflicts.
