Surfshark VPN with R6400v2
I have a Nighthawk R6400v2. I would like to download Surfshark VPN and put it on the router. Surfshark says I should look for OpenVPN Client in the list and not to mix it up with an OpenVPN server. D...
Thank you. I'm hesitant to monkey around with it too much. Is there a reasonably priced VPN that you would recommend, that I can put on an R6400v2?

The only vpn that works on stock firmware is the built in one.
If you're wanting a different one, you'd have to install the 3rd party firmware.
If I am not mistaken, the built in one will allow me to securely access my home computer when I am out traveling. Does the built in one allow me privacy in regards to my activity on the internet? I'm trying to take some steps to increase my level of privacy.
If you're looking for the easiest to use/secure, I'd look at installing the 3rd party firmware and using a vpn that hosts in a country that doesn't allow monitoring/logs.
