    RT-AC68 VPN able to make anonymous?

    Hello- I have an Asus RT-68AC Router and am curious about the VPN functions. I admit I don't know a whole lot and what I've found, isn't exactly about router's VPN for complete anonymity - and I don't have enough of a grasp to figure out how the guides I've found apply to my question...
