PIA VPN setup on Netgear C6300

Hello to Everyone,

 

Im new in this community and please take it easy on me :smileyhappy:  I would like to know if its possible to setup a Private Internet Access (PIA) VPN on Netgear model C6300 for my house wifi connection. Since my family use internet and i want them to be protected. I would like your inputs on this and it would be possible to recommend me what you think might work for my wifi system.. Thanks in advance.

      Re: Private Internet Access (PIA) is a virtual private network (VPN) pay service. Basically what it does is mask your IP address for a diffirent IP address for privacy and security while using the internet.

        Ah yes, makes sense now.

         

        The C6300 doesn't support doing this in the router.  You'll need to get a VPN router to do this, and it will depend more on the service that you use and what hardware works best with them.
