Netgear R7000 Nighthawk Router

Hello all, I have a netgear R7000 router and I want to run a VPN client so I can watch the TV from my home country. Are there any easy to follow steps to do this or information links please.

 

Thank you for your help on this.

 

Regards

Darren

    Luckily the r7000 can have 3rd party firmware installed that supports vpns. You can check with your preferred VPN and see if they support it, and if they do, simply install it. You'll loose your warranty and have to get support through that site since its their firmware (this forum is for stock firmware only)
