NORD VPN - is there a reasonable priced router that works with it and Orbi?
Hi i have a very small consultancy in the U.K. and Italy and swop between locations - I chose Nord VPN as I am not tecky and the reviews were good, similarly I chose the Orbi RBR50 and mesh extender...
Clive,
This does not answer the question I'm afraid.
With these VPN providers you build a VPN tunnel to the provider ... and from there the connections go out to the wild Internet. 99% of this is for hide-my-ass or to have an IP somewhere in another country to access location limited services, like national TV services.
A VPN (in business terms) is used to connect two or multiple sites, or to connect in a secure way to the corporate network, building a secure extension to your computer (or site).

Sorry Kurt, I can't help, I just do what I am told. I can keep jumping in and out the VPN when I am working, it is just it messes with my Sonos and Google smart home stuff and so the Google community advised installing the VPN on the router. One consultant I worked with on the last job used two VPNs concurrently! Or so he said. Not my area.
cheers
Clive
- So your customer tells you that you need to use a crappy hide-my-a** VPN to have all your Internet traffic flowing over a third party VPN service? Beyond me.
I understand your customer(s) are requesting to use THEIR VPN to connect to their business network - this is what makes sense.
Similar, they might require that you are using VPN for accessing business/contract relevant date you might host e.g. on a NAS in one of your sites over the Internet.
Never mind, it was intended as a heads-up ...
