Configuring L2TP VPN on router enables you to connect to VPN on multiple devices on your network; including: computers, smartphones, tablets, Playstation, Xbox, Smart TVs and any other device that uses your router for Internet connection. By doing so, you won't need to separately configure VPN on each device as your router will automatically connect all the devices to the VPN.


This can be very useful if you live in another country and wish to access streaming services; such as: Netflix, ABC, Hulu Plus, iTunes, BBC iPlayer or any other streaming service or website that would require having a different IP address from the IP of the country where you live.
