I am wanting to set up a WD-9980 VDSL2 as a modem and a router to access a VPN to bypass regional limitations (mainly for Netflix).
I need to access via from my smart TVsoitcannot be a softwaresolution.

I have chatted with someone from PureVPN. and they have told me that i need a seperate modem and router, which seems crazy to me.

Can someone advise me if this is correct. Do i need a different VPN provider or do they not understand how to make it work?

It doesn't make sense to me either. Why would they require for a seperate modem and router, what do they mean? (I cannot image how do they like to connect even if you have these devices.)
