Making A Dedicated VPN Home Router Using A Regular Router TP Link WR940N Private Internet Access PIA

Old video but does your ISP not still see data?

Edit: I see you covered my previous point. Are networks like this fast enough to still stream?

If I also created a guest SSID inside the VPN router (say TPlink in your example) in addition tot the main VPN SSID, would the connection from the guest SSID will be covered + protected by the VPN tunnel all the way to the VPN server somewhere?

Hi Richard, love the videos, 1 question. I have just bought a new Asus rt-ax1800 dual band with wifi 6, they say I can install open vpn client ot dd-wrt. I want thevpn router for my smart android tv. Which would you recommend?. No vpn provider yet but looking at your service.

Hi Richard hope you’re doing well.
Could you do an updated dedicated vpn router please. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Richard, what would happen if the VPN link went down? Would all traffic stop or would it go thru unencrypted?

Great video ... thanks !

Does it matter which vpn protocol you use?

very well presented, and lots of info,👍

Good video and the points you made are good and multiple times which is needed. Post people need to hear multiple times so it will be automatic when changing routers. I will watch again with a router in my hands. Also raspberry Pi can also make you a VPN if you have the knowledge to make one. Thanks for the video and I will definitely try this. 73

I tried to do this on a ASUS wireless router RT-AX1800s. It is a VPN router, bud i could not follow your instructions. I could not find a way to input the static ip inflammation you provide.

Hi Richard I watched both your very informative videos for this modem and the Netgear one and tried to apply the settings to a Tenda N300 router without success. Are PIA still supporting L2TP or could it be the ISP blocking any other WAN connections. The router connected to the ISP is a Sagemcom F@ST 3184 cable modem/router. Tenda just says connecting continually. Any ideas?

Great information!

Hi Mr Lloyd is Public ok when using VPN or Private connection for windows 10 pro?

Excellent video Richard, will this work if I have 2 routers (both DHCP disabled) connected to 1 modem (DHCP enabled) and I want to do this in 1 of the routers ?

If someone is searching how to hook up a VPN, we don't need a long explanation on coffee shops and tracking. We are already looking to hook up a VPN. Cut to the chase. Skip all the time warner and other stuff.

this kind of stuff uses for a sneaking to other person/s, but I don't think it makes your internet connection completely private, complete privacy is an offline. You can go to the cafe with a free wi-fi, and using an anonymous account download all the porn from the piratebay

Can I use COMCAST router?
Great teaching, good video.

thanks for the video do you have this setup tutorial in a Mac ?

I have a Arris NVG468MQ. Menu looks very different. I know it does passthrough but I don't know enough about routers to figure out how to apply this. Do you have any guidance ? Unfortunately this is Frontier's go to Fios router. I if you could share steps on this model, I am sure there are thousands of Frontier customers that can benefit. Thanks

Very explanatory! Thank you very much.

Great video - thanks Richard. I understand now How to decide if I wireless device goes through the VPN or not. But if the two routers have each a set of device connected to the LAN wired ports in their proximity and I would like some of wired devices to go through the VPN but theose are in the proximity of the main router (or even a wireless device close to VPN router to go through the main router) can I somehow do it (though a static route?) - or do I need each area of the home to have two routers?

Thanks fo the video. Can you set up a router VPN without a VPN provider? Also, where did you find the the new DNS # that you entered and is it an issue that DNS leak web shows Germany as location?

Can you do this on new tp-link software

A very well done step-by-step video thank you for that.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, PIA doesn't have the 'Network' tab any longer in their interface. Any other way to get that list once you log in?

no matter what vpn they ones i tried that support pptp and l2tp paid and free dont work for me, username and password is forever stuck on 'connecting...' and the server name isnt able to be pinged due to icmp filters.

I user TP link wr280 how do its setting

Hi Richard and thanks for your video. A simple question - is the set up of OpenVPN on a TP-Link AX3000/AX50 work the same, or are there other things to consider?
Thx,
Bill

Another good video, though what do you do if you have a modem/router specifically from your ISP? Do some not work if you change to another router/modem?
Thanks

Thanks! So helpful.

Thanks Richard for viseo. I have tried several attempts to set up TP- Link TL-WR841N v14 with sharksurf VPN. Unfortunately must be doing somthing wrong. In L2TP it only connects in Dynamic ip. It is however not connecting properly as shows IPA address and not VPN. I understand this verion of router cannot be flashed with DD-WRT. Shoul this router work with VPN.

Can anyone help, I have set up VPN server and works perfectly with my laptop when I add other devices they add fine but when I do ip leak it shows my actual location, any help? I have changed DNS on my other devices

hello it does not work for me its stuck on conecting... for me help plz

Would this works on TL-WR840N?

Hi Richard, thanks for doing this video! I'm stuck though. I have a PIA account number but can't seem to find the password for it . Can you tell me how to find it??

The force is strong with this one!!!

so basically the second router are vpn server without setting vpn inside ?

WII THIS WORK ON A D-LINK AC750 DUEL BAND ROUTER ? THANKS

Nice tutorial. Thanks!
What if you have something like the Norton VPN service which comes bundled with Norton 360?
Can I use this method?

skip his first step to find the gateway in the bottom left search run then type cmd then type ipconfig and find the connection your on its way faster

HI Richard, Thank fot the Video lots of information there and for sure its one of the easiest i have seen. I would like to use another configuration: Connect a VPN router (wifi disabled ) directly to my cable modem and connect my primary Google wifi mash router (its all over the house) directly to the VPN router (in short MOdem>>VPN Router>>Google wifi) so I would have VPN to all my network . My question is: Do I need to configure differently the ip addresses in the VPN router? Thank you so much!

What if I want my home network to be protected? Can I bypass the two router setup and Just mask my main home network?

Wow. Great way of teaching. Just discovered your channel and my project list grew exponentially. Amazing content, thank you for making it!

Fantastic video! Thanks. For services where a vpn is not allowed, for example, Netflix, would I still be able to connect to my primary network?

THIS GUY JUST SAID IN THIS VIDEO YOUR ISP DOES NOT TRACK YOU ONLY GOOGLE, AMAZON EBAY, ETC. HE’S AN IDIOT FOR ADVISING YOU TO PAY FOR A ROUTER AND A VPN SERVICE YOU DONT NEED. ONCE YOU PASS YOUR ISP, YOURE FAIR GAME AND ARE BEING MONITORED CAUSE SITES LIKE GOOGLE NEEDS TO KNOW THE (SOURCE) IP FROM WHERE THE REQUEST CAME FROM. ITS BETTER YOU CREATE A SUB-LAN ( A NETWORK (UNKNOWN/HIDDEN) WITHIN YOUR KNOWN NETWORK THAT YOUR ISP SEES. YOU DONT WANT YOUR ISP TO SEE ALL YOUR FILES AND MONITOR YOUR EVERY MOVE OR DO YOU? PROTECT YOURSELF FROM ALL STRANGERS! USEYOUR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER (ISP) BE UTILIZED AS YOUR VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK (VPN) CONNECTION. I MEAN, ONE, YOU PAY FOR YOUR CONNECTION BE SECURE AND PRIVATE. TWO,, YOU NEED LOGON CREDENTIALS TO ACCESS THE WORLD WIDE WEB WHETHER IT BE YOUR SIM CARD ,IMEI, IP ADDRESS, CELL PHONE ACCOUNT NUMBER, ETC. AND THREE,
