VPN for BT Business Hub

JoeS — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 15:41:14 GMT

Hi Everyone,

At the moment we have wifi in an office which is not the main one, meaning everytime we log on we have to manually connect using a VPN client on our own PC's.

Is there a way to set up in the settings so the router connects to VPN itself rather than each user having to do this manually?

Thanks,

Joe

Hi there Joe,

unfortunately the BT router is not able to create a VPN and can only act as a passthrough, there are other routers out there that would establish the VPN for you.

Hi Markp,

Thanks for your reply!

So is there no way of setting this up so myself and others no longer have to use a VPN client?

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe,

as far as I know you would would need a hardware VPN device to keep the VPN connected all the time I could be wrong as it is not something I cover.
