Okay how would I install OpenVPN on my NAS? never used SSH before
I've never installed the OpenVPN client (which is what you would need) on my own ReadyNAS, so I'm not in a position to give you step-by-step instructions.
As Sandshark mentioned, it's not enough to install the client. You also need to set it up so that only the desired internet connections use it. Otherwise you will lose local access to the NAS. Again, not something I've needed to do, and folks here who have tried to route different applications through different networks have struggled getting that to work.
