Model: Archer C80  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.13.2 Build 230824 Rel.75032n(4555)

Is it possible to install a VPN connection to my C80 router, so that all my devices connected to my wifi gets routed through the VPN? I've searched the internet and it is supposedly possible, but I cannot find the VPN tab when I log in as an admin on my router. Does anyone know any solutions or is it just not possible?

 

I am very satisfied with my C80 router, I don't want to have to buy a new router just for the sake of installing VPN on, but it seems like I have to... Please someone who can help?

If you need a router that can work as VPN Client, then yes, you need to buy another router that has this feature.

Hi,

 

There is a pre-release firmware available for the Archer C80 V2.20 that adds L2TP/IPSec VPN Server functionality. Would that help you in any way?

  @woozle Myabe, but I think I need the possibility to run as a client, since I want all my devices connected to the router to be routed via the VPN. For that I need VPN Client functionality, or am I mistaken?
