TP-Link Router Configuration
For this example we are using the TP-Link AX5400 model router. Please consult TP-Link's website to determine which models supports the "VPN Client" feature.
TP-Link Routers can connect to a single VPN at a time, and can assign an arbitrary number of clients to that VPN. Clients not assigned to the VPN use the network connection normally.
Configure VPN on Router
- Log into your router
- Select the Advanced tab
- Select VPN Client from the left sidebar
- You may need select Enable beside VPN Client
- Under Server List click on Add
- Enter your server description, consider "WonderProxy - <location>"
- Select VPN Type L2TP/IPSEC
- Enter your username, and WonderProxy Password (note: TP-Link is enforcing a 64 character maximum password length, so your proxy token can not be used)
- Enter the IPSec Pre-Shared Key:
(you must be logged in as a proxy user to view the shared secret) - Click Save
- Select the toggle to enable the VPN
Note: If your router doesn't connect please ensure you have up-to-date firmware.
Add Devices to VPN List
TP-Link routers allow you to have some devices use the VPN while others do not. Add devices you wish to use the VPN to this list.
- Under Device List select Add
- Select the checkbox beside devices you wish to use the VPN connection
- Select OK
