Hi All

 

I recently purchased the TP-LINK TL-R605 vpn router with the ambition that I could use ExpressVPN on this router & then any device on my home network would get the location specified on my ExpressVPN account. 

 

Has anyone been able to successfully do this & if so how?

 

I've tried configuring a L2TP connection using the username, password & VPN Server name as supplied by ExpressVPN but unfortunately without any success.

 

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Neil

@Neil_Mc 

I found this below info on this FAQ. Is this helpful?

 

Q: Does TP-Link Wi-Fi Router support Third-Part VPN Server Provider such as ExpressVPN, Nord VPN?

A: When setting up VPN tunnel, there are control links and data links existed. Data links has two different modes: unencrypted and encrypted. Our TP-Link Wi-Fi router can only support unencrypted data links. However, most of third-part VPN Server Provider, such as Nord VPN, Express VPN and so on, use encrypted VPN connection, which means TP-Link router don’t support most of third-part VPN Server Provider now.

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.
