⚡ AetherRoute v5.0

![Download Latest Release]

AetherRoute is a dual-interface split-tunneling utility designed to optimize UDP packet latency and bypass strict captive-portal firewalls (Fortinet, Sophos, Cyberoam).

By inverting Windows TCP/IP adapter metrics, AetherRoute pushes lightweight authentication and VoIP traffic over a mobile USB tether while binding heavy match-server UDP packets directly to the local Wi-Fi backbone.

🚀 V5.0 Safe Engine Update

• Safe Core Routing: Removed the legacy WLAN AutoConfig suspension. The engine now strictly relies on native TCP/IP routing tables (NetTCPIP cmdlets) to prevent any chance of permanent Wi-Fi scanning breakage if the app is unexpectedly force-closed.
• Hardware-Accelerated UI: Glassmorphism interface featuring an animated 8-bit mascot and an [FX: ON/OFF] toggle to save CPU frames on lower-end hardware.
• System Tray Integration: Minimizes seamlessly into the Windows taskbar tray for zero desktop clutter.
• Universal Adapter Detection: Automatically maps to any Android or iOS USB tether dynamically.

🛡️ Anti-Cheat & Network Safety

• Zero Memory Hooks: Operates strictly via native Windows TCP/IP routing APIs (NetTCPIP cmdlets). It does not inject into game processes or create virtual TAP adapters.
• Fully Compliant: 100% safe for Riot Vanguard, Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC), BattlEye, and Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC).
