Orbi VPN for Smart TV Orbi RBR50
I have an Orbi RBR50 and I'm trying to use the VPN for my Roku box (mainly to watch Netflix), but I can't seem to make it work.

What VPN are you trying to use? Are you trying to establish VPN while attached to Orby towards a remote destination or VPN towards Orbi from outside?

- ekhalilMasterThe VPN settings in Orbi allows you to use a computer or a smart phone to establish a VPN tunnel from outside your home via internet to your Orbi at home so you can access the home devices as if you are at home.
The Roku is attached to your home Orbi so you can use a smart phone to connect a VPN to your home while you’re outside to be able to use the Roku as if you’re at home.
Is this what you want?
