System Requirements for Running bannedbook/fanqiang: Complete Platform Guide

The bannedbook/fanqiang repository is a curated collection of proxy and VPN tutorials rather than a single executable program, with system requirements varying by platform from Windows 7 and Android 5.0 to OpenWrt 19.07 routers and Debian 9 VPS instances.

According to the bannedbook/fanqiang source code, this repository aggregates configuration files, installation scripts, and step-by-step guides for circumventing internet censorship across multiple operating systems. Because it distributes tutorials and pre-built packages rather than a unified application, the system requirements depend entirely on which specific tool and platform guide you follow.

Platform-Specific System Requirements

Windows Requirements

The Windows tutorials in windows/readme.md target Windows 7 (64-bit) or newer. Most automation scripts assume PowerShell 5+ and .NET Framework 4.6+ are installed. Typical software referenced includes V2rayN, Clash for Windows, ShadowsocksR, and SSTap.

macOS Requirements

For macOS users, the guides in macos/readme.md require macOS 10.10 (Yosemite) or newer. GUI-based tools such as V2RayU, V2RayX, and ClashX need a modern Chrome or Safari browser to handle configuration imports.

Linux Desktop Requirements

The Linux tutorials support any recent distribution with kernel version 3.10 or higher. The "Chrome一键翻墙包" (ChromeGo) specifically requires a graphical environment with Chrome or Chromium browser installed, as documented in linux/readme.md.

Android Requirements

Android devices must run Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or newer and allow installation of APKs from unknown sources. The repository references V2free, Clash for Android, BifrostV, and V2RayNG, with specific setup details in android/clash.md.

iOS and iPadOS Requirements

For Apple mobile devices, the guides require iOS 10 or newer. Devices must support configuration profile installation or access to the App Store/TestFlight for apps like Shadowrocket, Quantumult X, and Surge, as outlined in the iOS tutorial section.

Debian VPS Requirements

Server-side setup guides in v2ss/最简单的Google BBR 一键加速VPS教程.md require Debian 9 (Stretch) or newer. The VPS must grant root access via SSH and maintain IPv4 connectivity to deploy V2Ray with TLS and WebSocket configurations.

Router Requirements

OpenWrt and ASUS Merlin router tutorials in router/OpenWRT.md demand OpenWrt 19.07+ or the latest Merlin firmware. Hardware must include at least 64 MB RAM and sufficient flash storage to host SSR Plus or V2Ray packages.

Game Console Requirements

For PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and Apple TV, the game/ directory explains that consoles must support Ethernet or Wi-Fi sharing from a PC or Mac running one of the desktop tools listed above, effectively using the host machine as a "旁路由" (side router).

Prerequisites from the Source Code

The repository structure reveals that system requirements are documented in platform-specific readme files rather than a centralized configuration. Key files defining these requirements include:

• windows/readme.md – Documents PowerShell and .NET dependencies
• macos/readme.md – Lists minimum macOS versions and browser requirements
• android/clash.md – Specifies Android 5.0+ and unknown source installation settings
• router/OpenWRT.md – Details OpenWrt version and hardware memory constraints
• v2ss/最简单的Google BBR 一键加速VPS教程.md – Confirms Debian 9+ compatibility for server-side acceleration

Installation Examples by Platform

Below are representative commands extracted from the repository guides demonstrating the environment setup for each major platform.

Windows V2rayN Setup

Debian VPS BBR Acceleration

# Debian 9+ required

apt-get update && apt-get install -y dnsutils
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ylx2016/Linux-NetSpeed/master/tcp.sh)

# Choose BBR as the congestion control algorithm

sysctl -w net.core.default_qdisc=fq
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=bbr

Summary

• bannedbook/fanqiang is a tutorial collection, not a monolithic application, so system requirements vary by platform guide.
• Windows requires version 7+ with PowerShell 5 and .NET 4.6+.
• macOS requires Yosemite (10.10)+ with a modern browser.
• Linux desktop needs kernel 3.10+ and Chrome/Chromium for the ChromeGo package.
• Android 5.0+ and iOS 10+ are the minimum mobile requirements.
• Routers need OpenWrt 19.07+ or Merlin firmware with 64 MB RAM minimum.
• Debian VPS servers require Stretch (9) or newer for BBR acceleration scripts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is bannedbook/fanqiang a single program I can download?

No, it is a curated repository of configuration files, tutorials, and setup guides for various proxy and VPN tools. You select the specific guide matching your operating system and follow the instructions to install the recommended third-party software.

Can I run these tools on Windows XP or older Android devices?

No, the Windows guides generally require Windows 7 (64-bit) or newer, and Android tools require Lollipop (5.0) or newer. Older operating systems lack the cryptographic libraries and network stack features required by modern proxy protocols like V2Ray and Clash.

What hardware specifications do I need for router-based翻墙?

According to router/OpenWRT.md, your router must support OpenWrt 19.07+ or ASUS Merlin firmware and possess at least 64 MB of RAM and sufficient flash storage to accommodate the SSR Plus or V2Ray plugin packages.

Do I need programming knowledge to meet these system requirements?

No programming knowledge is required to meet the system requirements, though basic command-line familiarity helps when following the VPS setup guides. Most desktop and mobile tutorials provide graphical installer links and step-by-step screenshots for non-technical users.
