Does the Orbi RBR20 support router-to-router VPN?
I own a pair of Orbi RBR20 routers which I have installed in two separate physical locations. I bought them thinking that they would support a router-to-router VPN tunnel between the two locations. ...

Just a bit of Orbi VPN Trivia: Orbi's OpenVPN will accept multiple connections at one time (at least two, for sure).
Not the desired solution, but that would provide a way for two (or more) computers to tunnel into the Orbi and appear to have a US IP address.

That's helpful. Maybe I can use the remote Orbi as intended, and just add a router on my local end that will set up the router-to-router VPN. OpenVPN recommends Asus routers for the purpose. Maybe that's the way to go.
Part of the reason I want to go with a router-to-router VPN is that I want my local AppleTV and FireTV devices to appear as though they are in the US. A friend has a piece of hardware called "Ubiquity" that he swears by for this purpose. Does anyone have any refelctions on Ubiquity?
