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.
To allow VPN clients to access only your home network:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the router
network.
2.
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.
