Set Up VPN Client Internet Access in the Router
By default, the router is set up to allow VPN connections only to your home network,
but you can change the settings to allow Internet access. Accessing the Internet remotely
through a VPN might be slower than accessing the Internet directly.
To allow VPN clients to use your home Internet service:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter
http://www.routerlogin.net
.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is
admin
. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select
ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > VPN Service
.
The VPN page displays.
5. Select the
Enable VPN Service
radio button.
6. Scroll down to the Clients will use this VPN connection to access section, and select
the
All sites on the Internet & Home Network
radio button.
When you access the Internet with the VPN connection, instead of using a local
Internet service, you use the Internet service from your home network.
7. Click the
Apply
button.
Your settings are saved.
8. Click the
For Windows
or
For Non Windows
button and download the configuration
files for your VPN clients.
9. Unzip the configuration files and copy them to the folder where the VPN client is
installed on your device.
For a client device with Windows 64-bit system, the VPN client is installed at
C:\Program
files\OpenVPN\config\
by default.
Block VPN Client Internet Access in the Router
By default, the router is set up to allow VPN connections only to your home network,
not to the Internet service for your home network. If you changed this setting to allow
Internet access, you can change it back.
