Mainland access: our 2026-10-17 test from Shanghai China Unicom (IPv4+IPv6, no proxy) reached the site and API; other ISPs not tested. The Terms say some model providers bar certain countries/regions, and such Restricted Models may not be accessed through OpenRouter. Whether this model provider restricts mainland China or other regions: no explicit official statement found (?). | openrouter.ai 2026-10-17 |
