How to configure a VPN on the router
Setting up a VPN on the router is a relatively simple process. The first thing you need is to know the VPN username and password. Once you have it, you will have to access the router settings.
On most routers, the process is as follows:
1. Enter the router configuration menu
2. Go to the networking section
3. Select the connection you want to add the VPN to
4. Enter the VPN username and password
5. Click add
6. Make sure the VPN is activated
7. Exit the settings menu
Usually, there is no need to change any other settings on the router. However, you may need to modify the IP address of your router. To do this, you will have to access the router settings and select the DHCP section. On most routers, the default IP address is 192.168.1.1. If you change this address, make sure that the VPN also uses a different IP address in the range of IP addresses that you have assigned to the router.
Once you've made these changes, restart your router and computer. You should now be able to connect to the VPN using the username and password you entered.
