Re: VPN

Hello Jakexx - Would you mind providing us with the model number (eg. RAX80) of the router you recently purchased.

 

Thanks,

You intend to configure some hide-my-a**-type VPN client on the router for connecting it to some VPN provider e.g. in a different country or under a different legislation?

Re: VPN

Yeah, go to the suggestions section and vot for my third party VPN suggestion because, NG does not support anything other than PureVPN on the Nighthawks, not sure why we are forced to have this its not only one of the slower VPNs, they also been caught logging contrary to their claims.

Re: VPN

You're right, I forgot about the lack of consistency in feature set between models, true not every model even has the built in option.

Re: VPN

Christian, It does not cover how to install VPN's in the manual. Which leads me to believe it doesnt support them Which will make me return it
