There is a way but I'mworking on the setup now. Some 1 fixed it by having the ISP change the internal IP to external. When I find out I'll let you know. The server let's you connect thru you system when away from home

Absolutely. My ISP modem is bridged and connect to my ASUS 68U by ethernet cable. I have no secondary routers. I do however have the OPENvpn server ON and a USB 3.0 drive for ftp and data transfer/backups.

I'm doing the same. Now I'm trying to get rid of the "WAN IP is not the external IP. External IP based services will not work" error message from the router.

I knew it was to good to be true..darn it. Now I'm getting a wan/ip is not external ip. Has to do with AI setup

I got it to activate !!! I sent the log to PIA and apparently I mistyped my password. So excited. Now I have to fix the passwords being left in memory and figure out how to set the switch to stop internet access if the VPN goes down and I'm all set! Thank you so much. I have been trying to get...

You're the best! I have the A2 version. It says the 3.0 usb is shielded. What does that mean? As you can tell I am learning as I go...

So there is no way to setup this A2 router to avoid having to put vpn software on each device even though documentation says there is? ? Ok, I have the openvpn server setup so I can connect when away from home, however, PIA says they don't support that setup. They want me to revert to default...

How do you tell if you have an A1 or B1?

According to the Asus RT-AC68U documentation this router can be setup as a OpenVPN server that masks ALL transmission from all devices WITHOUT adding vpn software to each device. I cant get any info on doing this. Does anyone know how to do this so I don't have to purchase vpn service from a...
