As such it needs to be plugged into a lan port on an existing router such as the one provided by your isp or paired with a dedicated modem

For example it allows you to create a dedicated access point for your kids that can be configured to only provide internet access at certain times of the day andor blocks access to inappropriate websites

It can be used to set up a second subnet if your isp limits the number of devices that can be connected to their router

I bought the asus rtn19u router for the latter reason to use it as a dedicated vpn access point and it works very well

This router shares the same asuswrt firmware found in more expensive routers which has some pretty advanced features

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

This includes the ability to set up whitelist and blacklist network filters that are active at certain times and both a client and server for vpn with support for openvpn

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

This is really really important if you are using the built in vpn client as it obviously needs to encrypt and decrypt all network traffic

The only downside of this product is the asus customer support which is absolutely useless
