===================
Connecting Over Tor
===================
You can connect to your Start9 server from anywhere in the world, privately and anonymously, by using its unique Tor Address (``.onion`` URL).
.. note:: Tor connection can sometimes be unreliable and have higher latency than normal internet connections.
Using Firefox
-------------
.. tip:: This is the recommended way to connect to your Start9 server over Tor, but it requires some additional steps.
#. Run Tor (**not Tor Browser**) in the background on your connecting device.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 2
tor-os/index
#. Configure Firefox to handle *``.onion``* URLs.
.. toctree::

tor-firefox/index
Using TorBrowser
-------------------
.. caution:: Tor Browser will allow you to use your Start9 server's ``.onion`` URL without any manual configuration, however *all* connections are proxied via Tor, so you will not be able to access your Start9 server's ``.local`` LAN address with it. `Using Firefox <#using-firefox>`_ is recommended over TorBrowser.
* Linux, Mac, Windows, Android
* `Tor Browser <https://torproject.org/download/>`_
* iOS
* iOS lacks a well-functioning Tor Browser. Use `Firefox <tor-firefox/torff-ios>`_
