thank you very much. man. i liked your help video. it helped me to make vpn-connection for my Oculus to Meta. thanks. best regards and Merry XMas :)

Hands down the best video demonstrating the process to setup a VPN on the router 😊

Hi I have the Asus RT-AC1200 V 2 . But I don't see a VPN tab in the advanced settings?

Thanks great Video.

Would this work for blocked websites at school?

when i activate the server it spins then an x , authentication failed.it used to work?? any thoughts

Awesome lesson! I really appreciate you helping with this issue I had over a year now... One quick question: Can you route traffic around a specific streaming service like VUDU, they completely block VPNs and I hate to keep turning the VPN on and off, on and off!? Thanks

I spent the whole night last night trying to set this connection up and here we are today after watching your video for like the first 11 minutes, I am done setting my connection. That was really well done. Thanks a bunch and Great Job.

This video saved me a lot of time. Great work!

great video, helped lots

So I went with the asus, and the sofware seems to be difrent than when u uploaded this, And I cant seem to get it to work, do you have another video for the new sofware interface? I have the 11000 asus router

You tou so much man, i was wondering if asus has any apps to control these connections? Also if the vpn service goes offline would you get any error or would it switch automatically to your original provider?

I was panicking when I downloaded it and people said it was "SpyWare".

this is which model?

No point using Opera VPN. 👍

So do we trust ASUS is not sending your info to PRC agents?

Just set everything up, fantastic

Excellent stuff thanks a million. I'm gonna try it out with ipvanish. Cheers!

Have 2 Asus routers one is the main router and the other is set up as a AIMesh. I assume I only need to do the install in the first router and not on the AIMesh. Am I correct ?

VERY NICE TUTORIAL. Made me understand how vpn works with asus routers. Great! Do you think it is possible to use pi-hole for ad-blocking and use VPN for some devices through policy rules? i want to use 2 boxes for streaming and all the others device to be ad-blocked with pi-hole. To use pi-hole, it must be set as DNS 1 in LAN options and to prevent dns leak this case should be blank. thanks

Great video! Question: do you know how to 1) install the feature or "johns" fork of Merlin software that allows control of the transmission power and beacon interval? I don't need full power and want it to run cool/last long. 2) make sure its the correct file size. No malware?

Great video! Excellent explanations. Questions: 1) is self hosting your own vpn using Linux on an old computer or pi the safest way like many pros insist? 2) is it normal to get 6 devices listed in the router connected device history list even though i only have 4 devices that use the locked down router? I have a hell of a time figuring out which ip addresses are which device buy since my phone's already to be dynamic? I often get a 5th odd jaoanese name on my network that Google says is a light manufacturer or something.

omg thank you so much, you save me, even tho this is 2017, you the mvp.

good day sir, if i pair modem b618 with ac86u, is it possible? any tutorial pair for this one..tq in advance

I am running merlin on my nighthawk I am having issues with setting up my express VPN. I don't know if you can help

Excellent

Excellent

Nice, still works in 2021!!

When using the PIA VPN Client setup on an Asus router with *Dual Wan* - does the VPN cover both Wan connections simultaneously?

Thanks for this very clear tutorial clear as your voice.. Im your new subsciber

at last, I can use roku here in my country with hbo max!!! thanks to this very simple tutorial. whew!!! thanks a lot!

Great video! Will this work in roku? I mean my roku is at my TV then it will read wifi signal. I'm getting geoblocks. Thanks.

hi I got to the step of going into VPN Client however I don't have the option for "Openvpn" only PPTP, L2TP - I called their call center and they do not seem to know how why. But if I am using expressvpn can I use the other options other than Openvpn?

Thanks for the video. But what if the Asus router is connected behind the ISP modem/router. It doesn't work with me probably because of that..😔

Please my friend I want to add ipvanish to rt-n66u router

I have this very router had been sitting in the box. Came across your set-up video so I busted it out of box and set it up. The way you explain this stuff is superb. I have a question though. I have gigabit internet. The router which was supplied by my provider pulls 1G. I bridged one port on it and hooked up the Asus but the speed is down to 300-400 with hard wired or Wi-Fi. Any idea why? Thanks.

can I use dns filter and nord vpn at the same time?

Need a tutorial on how to configure my Asus Router with Merlin, mine is the Asus RT-AC68U

This is exactly what I was looking for, need to route just my smart TV to the tunnel, thanks a bunch

How many remote devices can the asus OpenVPN setup handle?

I was able to connect, receving a new public IP, but when I go to IPlocation.net, the public IP that is found does not match what it should be on the created VPN client. - UPDATE i was able to get a public IP but no any device I put into the VPN loses internet connection.

Works a treat. Thank you so much.

Works perfect

Great video!! Helped me a lot, thanks!

Thanks a million!

GREAT video, helped me so much to setup my Asus with merlin. Cheers. I have a unique problem, though. I set up my router with my VPN so I can hide my IP while gaming. The connection is great, but during party chat my friends say my voice goes "robot mode" and cuts in and out. Is there any way to make the router faster? The server I've chosen is a city away from me. The connection is wired with an ethernet cable. ANY help is appreciated.

Hi.. i have a question about my router asus rt ac3200 i set vpn on my router when activated my network is disconnected. Is there any way to solve like this problem..thanks

Advice Needed Please: Thank you for this video, however, I am a novice and would be very grateful for some advice. I have the ASUS 4G-AC55U router (live in the sticks so my LTE signal is stronger than the phoneline/broadband speed. I've been using a mag322 IPTV box for 18 months, problem-free. Suddenly in June, the stream would go black and then come back on (approx every 20 seconds). Since June, I have replaced the magbox with new, replaced the simcard from my current provider with a new one, but the problem persists. So then I tried another providers simcard for a month, the problem stopped immediately. After some research, I think my current LTE cell service provider is blocking (or using an iPLOCK/traffic throttling) to disrupt streaming of the content? I found the following, libertyshield.kayako.com/article/8-mag-box-with-vpn-router however, do I need this additional router/vpn subscription to my existing set-up; in order to resolve the issue? Or, should my asus 4g-AC55U be able to fulfil the VPN issue? I want to create a VPN client/server network and then only allow the IPTV MAGBOX device, to access the VPN (which is encrypted) and hopefully stops the issue I am experiencing with the screen blanking out every 20 seconds? I would really be grateful for your insight and advice? I think i'm correct that my router should be able to handle the above as its advertised as "VPN Server and Client for Encrypted Remote Connection With the virtual private network (VPN) server and VPN client, you can access your home network remotely or surf the internet with encryption, no need for paid VPN services or a dedicated VPN server. Thanks so much, any advice is appreciated.

4:33, what to do when there is no option of open vpn?

fast dot com is far better than speedtest, speedtest uses flash and shows a crap ton of ads to slow down the speeds you should get.
