Super excited to tease a brand new VPNMON-R3 feature... coming to a BETA your way soon! Double-Hop VPN!

Capable of selecting and configuring an inner and outer VPN tunnel, and when using 2 different VPN providers, gives you some of the best possible privacy available. Unique to VPNMON-R3 and this Asus Merlin Community, this feature also lets you use straight OVPN and pair it with a WG tunnel, or WG with OVPN, WG with WG or OVPN with OVPN.

Still doing lots of testing and cleanup... but hoping to get this out in your hands within a few more days!

Shhhh... For anyone interested in wanting to test the first pre-release beta1... I've made it available. This is practically Alpha... All menus look clean, functionality looks good, will be making a few more tweaks here & there. Use at your own risk, and let me know how it goes!

VPNMON-R3 v1.9.0 Beta 1- (February 25, 2026)
- MINOR: Added an extremely unique feature to VPNMON-R3. Double-Hop VPN! While this kind of functionality is available using major VPN providers, this is not a feature I have come across in the Merlin FW world as of yet. This feature is capable of selecting and configuring an inner and outer VPN tunnel, and when using 2 different VPN providers, gives you some of the best possible privacy available. Unique to VPNMON-R3 and this Asus Merlin Community, this feature also lets you use straight OVPN and pair it with a WG tunnel, or WG with OVPN, WG with WG or OVPN with OVPN. This option is available under the configuarion menu -> Option #17. A full menu to manage this feature has been added that lets you pick which VPN/WG slots, Hop Clients, and Advanced Settings if need be, along with the ability to enable/disable, rebuild, and tear down routing rules.
