because of BT and popcorn time, i read online ppls suggested to use vpn to secure myself, and i found the a website called strongvpn.

can someone explain some basics things to me?

if i signed that up for a $50 yr, and downloaded a client to my mac, turn on , login. and it works . correct ?

if that is it, what is the vpn setting in the router for ?
 
If You use vpn client on your pc only pc go over vpn if You setup on router all Devices go over vpn

Download speed is slower on router

Buy Openvpn doesnt matter router or pc always openvpn

I dont use official firmware cant say anything about that i use ddwrt

But on your router you will get max 20-30mbps speed (ac68u)
