Setting up a VPN on your router provides whole-home internet protection

Setting up a VPN on your router allows all devices in your home to be protected at once, rather than installing the VPN app on each device individually. This is especially useful for devices that cannot run VPN apps, like game consoles. Not all routers support VPN connections, so it's important to check your router's specifications before setting up. If your router is compatible, you will need to enter specific settings from your VPN provider to establish the connection. Once configured, all internet traffic through the router will be encrypted. However, users cannot change the VPN server easily, and the connection between devices and the router remains unencrypted.
