When you are selecting a router to install Proton VPN on, you should choose one from a brand with a good track record of keeping its firmware up-to-date. Keeping your router up to date will help it stay compatible with our servers. (These examples are taken from user issue reports.) This can happen if the router is running an outdated version of OpenVPN (e.g., 2.3) or an old version of the SSL/TLS networking stack. If they are not updated, routers can become incompatible and stop supporting Proton VPN’s service. Q: Once I set up a VPN on my router, do I need to do anything else?Ī: A router, like any other device, needs to be updated regularly to receive the latest security improvements.

Other local network connections, like a Bluetooth connection between your smartphone and speaker, will not be protected. As long as your router is password-protected and you do not have any unknown devices connected to your network, this should not be an issue. The VPN encryption takes place on your router, which means it only applies to the traffic between your router and your Internet service provider. Q: Will having Proton VPN on my router protect all my connections?Ī: The VPN on your router will protect the connections of all devices connected to the router, but not necessarily the connection between the device and the router. If your router cannot handle the additional VPN encryption, then yes, you could see slower speeds. Q: Will my connection speed slow down if I set up Proton VPN on my router?Ī: That depends on the processing power of your router. Tomato router (legacy) FreshTomato router Vilfo router
