Hi,

 

Do you want to connect the 841N to the VPN server to access internet or you just want to connect to the VPN server to access the local sources? 

 

While if you want to select L2TP as internet connection type and connect it to the VPN server to access internet, please notice that it does not support encrypted traffic data. So if the front-end VPN server is encrypted, it may not able to connect to it.

 

And the 841N cannot act as a VPN client, while it supports VPN passthrough, the devices connected to the 841N can connect to the VPN server instead. 

 

Good day.

Thanks to assist me about device, might be that is the actual issue. Because I search too many guides on Google and got several results but no one can satisfied me. Even I got setup guide like https://www.vpngate.net/en/howto_l2tp.aspx https://www.expressvpn.com/what-is-vpn/protocols/l2tp https://www.purevpn.com/what-is-vpn/protocols/l2tp But still useless. Now I decide to change the device because this make hurdle in connection. Can you please suggest me which one is best that also support me on vpn? Must reply me.

Hi,

 

We do have routers which support L2TP VPN server, while if you want to connect the router to the existing L2TP VPN server with encrypted data, I'm afraid that there is no device may able to work together now. Because they do not support encryption data in the WAN side. 

 

Good day.
