Hi no I am not asking netgear to support the vpn providers , NordVPN, etc.
What I am asking is if the firmware includes the vpn client application that we can configure to use NordVPN or ExpressVPN, TorGuard etc. Linksys, ASUS, D-link, Tp-link to name a few all providers vpn client capability , on all there high performance ( top price) product.
Can you ever tried fastestVPN it's may compatible with numerous router like Asus, D-link etc
Hi Jeff
Thanks for the reply. The question was regarding a vpn client for the r9000 router. Netgear has confirmed that the R9000 does not and never will have any vpn client available from netgear.

Netgear has made it very clear . New models have been released so it appears that the R9000 is yesterday’s hero -:)
