Asus RT-N66U - 900Mbps Dual Band Wireless N Router instead of HG 635 Super Router.
Just asking for opinions and information at present, so anyone who has experience with VPN and more preferably with the ASUS RT-N66U router at the moment please chime in.
http://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/RTN66U/ I am going to start using a VPN service called hidemyass.
https://www.hidemyass.com/ In the first instance I will just setup VPN to use on my main PC and use the supplied software, but once sorted out, I am going to purchase another router such as ASUS RT-N66U to replace my HG635 SuperRouter (no VPN) and setup the VPN protocol on it so that I can use 2 PCs, 1 Laptop, 2 mobile phones and 1 tablet, using one VPN tunnel out of the router. This I was advised yesterday by first hidemyass chat person is the best way to go because the software is only allowed on 2 pieces of hardware together.
However, when talking via chat with another hidemyass representative, he says I have to keep my Talktalk HG635 router and plug the Asus RT-N66U into the original Talktalk HG635 Super Router router because the Asus RT-N66U cannot be the primary router with Talktalk.
Anybody have any comment on this? I have just changed to FTTC and I used 3 different Netgear routers instead of the supplied talktalk routers over the years when using the normal broadband system.
Sounds like the second hidemyass chat representative was not correct.
I see the Asus RT-N66U does not have VDSL integrated, so I would need to use the one that was provided by Open Reach when FTTC was installed on 30 June 2014.
Failing that, I could purchase an equally good router for use with fibre with VPN that has VDSL modem integrated and 4 x1000Mbps LAN! Anyone any suggestions?
Thanks
