How to set up VPN

[JackElliott]

I personally use PIA (Private Internet Access) on my computer, but I'd like to set that up on the router so everything goes through the VPN.

Given the recent FCC ruling on allowing ISPs et al to sell your browsing data (yes, I know that edge providers like Google and Facebook would still have been able to sell your data anyway, and I know that there's no guarantee that VPN providers will keep my data secure despite promises), people are probably now looking for how to implement a VPN on the Gargoyle.

Has anyone set this up? A step-by-step showing how to do the tricky bits like certs would be helpful. Esp. if it shows how to do it to use PIA for the VPN provider.

Gargoyle's version of OpenVPN does not support service providers.

However others have make hacks via command line to get it to work.

The main problem is gargoyle does not support the use of user name and password via GUI.

Drat.

Okay then, sod the service provider approach.

Would this be a decent How-To to setting things up without using a service provider: https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/vpn.openvpn

I tried, but the connection speed is not very stable
