    Help setting up Nord VPN

    I have very little knowledge in terms of how attackers find their targets or the different things that they can actually do. It seemed as though that having my IP untraceable would help combat some types of attacks at least. For the price of a VPN I figured if it helps even just a little, it...

    Help setting up Nord VPN

    Yeah, it was through the webui, I think. The log said locked login due to 5 failed attempts(in different wording of course). I'll go ahead and do the update and lock everything down. I hadn't had any issue til now which caused me to get too comfortable. Lesson learned. Thank you for sharing your...

    Help setting up Nord VPN

    Ok thanks. I did have it set up for remote access for the mobile ASUS app for ease of control, knowing there are security risks with doing so due to the foolish "won't happen to me" mentality. My network security is more important now than ever. Thanks for everything!

    Help setting up Nord VPN

    Thank you very much for the info. I hadn't downloaded the file yet since the instructions had that as a later step and I don't know enough to feel comfortable doing the steps at random. I'm sure I'll be back if I have any issues. Thanks again!

    Help setting up Nord VPN

    Hi there. I'm hoping someone could help me with setting up Nord VPN on my ASUS RT-N66R. I've read the instructions for my router on Nords website, but I'm running different firmware than what they have instructions for, and the options on the router are vastly different to the point I can't...
