RAX48 VPN?
I want to get a VPN provider but I read online that Nord or Express VPN does not work with the RSX48 model. Is there a VPN that works with this model?

appreciate the replies. Wanting to install it as a client so all traffic goes thru the router. Not understanding much about a VPN, i searched and it stated that my 2000 version of Netgear does not support it's us a a a client.
I decided to future-proof my network and ordered a wifi7 router that supports VPN client use.

It would be helpful if you clarified what you mean by "does not work". While you cannot install Nord and Express VPN on the router, Express VPN and Nord will work when installed on clients connected to the router.
Are you wanting
- remote access to your home network?
- all home internet traffic to use the VPN with no software installed on the devices?
- VPN software on some or all client devices to work when the VPN software is enabled on those clients?
