Turn VPN off via Asus App?

[Donga120]

Is it possible to turn my VPN off/on with the Asus Router app? Basically there are certain times when I don't want the VPN enabled, and being able to turn it on via the app would be much easier than logging into the web browser, unless there is an alternate way?


Thanks,

I doubt this, and there are many “recommended“ settings in the app to reduce the security of your router. I don't understand why it is needed.

If you want to enable or disable VPN through your phone, you can use iOS shortcuts to login to SSH and use commands to complete it. Once you have created such a shortcut, you only need to press the switch next time.

service stop_vpnserver1
service start_vpnserver1

Do not use Asus App. It has security issues.

Will look into SSH Commands and will remove the Asus App and withdraw from privacy policy. Thanks!
