Can you install a VPN service on an M1 Nighthawk router

Hello

 

I have an M1 Nighthawk mobile router in my Motorhome/RV. I want to be able to watch region restricted content when I travel in Europe. Can I install a VPN service (like ExpressVPN or NordVPN) on my router so that I don't have to do it on each device? If it is possible can you point me in the direction of how to do this?

 

Note I am not asking to make my M1 into a VPN server - well at least I don't think I am.

 

Any help is much appreciated

Not on that hotspot. (None of netgears support that option for hotspots)

but what you can do, is pickup a travel router (that has that capability) and install your preferred VPN or pick one that supports your preferred VPN from the VPN's site.

You'd go M1 (passthrough mode)----->travel router----->devices

 

I've used gl.inet with success in the past
