Another VPN question

VPN consists of two parts:

• A VPN Host and
• Clients who create a tunnel from their device to that Host.

This tunnel encrypts communication between the Client and the Host and allows the Host to perform services.

• Since the tunnel is encrypted, no one in the coffee shop, airport terminal, bordello, etc. can capture and snoop on the communication because it is impractical for anyone but the NSA to decrypt these streams.
• If the Host sends the communication on to another destination, it appears to have come from the Host, rather than from the original location.
• The Host can also strip information out of the communication to further anonymize things.

Netgear provides a VPN Host feature on consumer routers: the open source OpenVPN.  When enabled, this allows customers to use OpenVPN Client software on their mobile devices to communicate with the Orbi/Nighthawk LAN devices. Perhaps to check up on local servers, to manage the router, etc.  And, the Host has an option to forward the connection to the internet, so that instead of appearing to be at the remote location, the client appears to be coming from inside the customer's router.

There have been posts describing how to use VPN to appear to be home, so that services which check source IP address will allow streaming a movie (for example) when they would not allow streaming from the remote location.

So, the router VPN feature is the exact opposite of what you want.  Sorry.
