Install Private Internet Access Vpn To Asus Router

It was time to replace my aging Netgear R9000. I was waiting for wifi7 certification before upgrading to another router that I’ll use for 5+ years. The Asus BE98 Pro was a clear choice in terms of features and flexibility. The initial setup was easy to follow. If you are migrating from another router like I did. I recommend taking a snapshot/pic of your old router’s config. For example I have static IP addresses for devices that were configured as manually assigned IPs in my DHCP. I also had port forwarding configured. And I also named all my wifi devices and identified via MAC address in my old router. Having a pic of these setting prior to the setup of the Asus router was helpful and necessary. It made the Asus setup easy and troublefree. The Asus VPN fusion feature was what I was excited to use. Configuring a 3rd party VPN provider was simple to setup. It does require abit more technical know how to get it setup and configured. I suggest calling Asus support. Overall I’m glad with the wifi throughput I’ve gained and the WAN internet speed bump I gained coming from a 1G WAN/netgear roter to the 2.5G / Asus. I have a 1G plan with my provider and Im getting internet speed bursts up to 1.4G. If you can afford this router now I’d pull the trigger.

I had originally purchased a netgear router but returned it because I could not use it with a vpn. The Asus router functions with a vpn which is a huge plus and works like a charm.

Best Manageable Router/VPN and very easy to manage. We use this with all our clients. Easy to install and program.

Very easy to install and high performance. This is my third ASUS router

I moved to an area that has 1gb internet speeds and while happy with my 5 year old Asus router, I decided to get this new one. Set was easy via the app. Router is performing great in my small house. Another satisfying Asus product.

I replaced my Google Mesh router and access points with this ASUS router and it’s been working great! I have an 1800 sq foot 2 story house and it covers my whole house, plus the backyard. Speeds are great and so far, no intermittent connectivity. I’ll report back in a few months if it starts to have any issues.

The UI to access the settings of the router is a step up from my really old one that I upgraded. It's nice to have a router that should, in theory, keep up better with future internet speeds, and ASUS's supposed updates for old routers give me some peace of mind, whether it pans out to be true or not. The only thing I wish it could do is stand vertically. The space where my router lives requires this, so it's currently sitting awkwardly on its edge. From all my comparisons, this one looked to be the best ASUS router for the money, and I think I'll be very satisfied with it for a long time.

TP-Link ER605 V2 Omada Gigabit VPN Router was easy to set up (using it as a standalone router) and basically started working once powered on. The boot cycle is a bit slow (~2-3 mins), but once active there are no issues with all the network devices connected to it. The 4 ports are sufficient for setting up 4 different networks and the streaming devices seem to be more stable (less buffering, more responsive) than before. I should have bought this router years ago.

I needed internet access in an old building next to my house. It is too far away from my house to be supported by my wireless router. However, it does share electrical wiring with my house. Running new Cat5 cables was not a good solutions for a variety of reasons so I decided to try TP-Link's AV100 Gigabit Powerline Starter kit. The setup was very easy, basically plug and play. The price was very affordable. While not as fast as a direct connection, it still meets my needs.

If you’re like me and live off grid and cellular is your only means to access the internet this device is amazing. It works just like my old router when I lived in the city and had internet.
