A regular location
A country name without ACN denotes a regular connection to that location. Use it when your network allows a direct connection.
Choose a country manually if you need a specific overseas IP address. Websites may identify its location differently, and special rules may send particular services along another route.
What ACN means
ACN options use an extra entry node and an intermediate bridge before the overseas exit. They are intended for networks where a regular connection is unstable or unavailable.
Extra hops can increase latency. ACN does not guarantee access on every network; results depend on your carrier, region and current restrictions.
Numbers and special options
The #1, #2 and #3 suffixes distinguish options for the same location. They may use different settings and transports. A number is not a fixed speed ranking.
Allowlist modes, backup routes and gaming connections serve different purposes. On Allowlist routes, watch for the ×7 label: it refers to data accounting.
Do not compare options solely by the millisecond value in the list. An HTTP check and the latency of a specific app or game measure different things.
