ok thanks that worked for the setup on my android phone i was able to connect to the VPN and use my internet connection from 4g.. however how can i access my internal LAN computers ? from my phone , how do i access my PC's behind the netgear router what setting do i need to change or update DMZ ?

what is the main purpose ??
