OpenVPN

OpenVPN is the gold standard of VPN protocols. It offers the highest performance, the best security, and is highly configurable. Most of the VPN providers support the OpenVPN protocol.

  1. After accessing the router, go to Services > OpenVPN.

  2. In the Text field at the bottom of the page, enter the name of the configuration (e.g., MyVPN).

  3. From the drop-down menu, select “Simple client configuration for a routed point-to-point VPN” and click Add.

4. It will redirect to the configuration page. Click on the link Switch to advanced configuration.

5. Go to the Networking tab and fill in the required fields. Usually, dev it is set to tun and not tap (depend on VPN providers). If there is a field ifconfig with an IP address, remove the address (leave it blank). Save the settings by clicking the Save button in the bottom right corner.

6. Go to the Cryptography tab. Select ca from the bottom -- Additional Field -- and click the Add button. In the ca field, upload the *.crt file download from the VPN provider.
