Second router as a repeater with with VPN
Second router as a repeater with with VPN
Hi, I would like to have a second router, wired as a repeater to the main (EE) router, so that I can install a VPN on that second router. I want to be able to do this to enable me to run a smart TV from the router with VPN whereas most other devices would run VPN free from the first router. Is this possible and, if so, which TP Link router would be best for the job.

From my experience, you don't need to add the switch MAC to the VPN clients list. The laptop should appear in the connected clients list along with its MAC addresss so adding it to the VPN clients list should be straightforward. You might have to reboot the router and/or the laptop to get everything in sync.

Thanks will do that!
But in case i need to add multiple VPN Profiles for different Countries then i need to Reboot the Router after add any new profile?
Also strangely if i navigate away from VPN Client section then when i click back its looks "Disabled" however after i click on it it still says "Connected"

I tested the Profile with OpenVPN Connect, it was unable to process 2 section from NordVPN.ovpn file so i deleted then it was able to connect from Laptop/Windows then i delete the Profile on the Router & added NEW update Profile its SAME says "Connected" but NOT working from Laptop...
Anyway many thanks for Your support i will post my problem in "generic" VPN Trouble-shooting Thread...
