Use VPN to Access Your Network

A virtual private network (VPN) lets you use the Internet to securely access your network
when you aren’t home.

Figure 15. VPN provides a secure tunnel between your home network and a remote computer
This type of VPN access is called a client-to-gateway tunnel. The computer is the client, and
the router is the gateway. To use the VPN feature, you must log in to the router and enable
VPN, and you must install and run VPN client software on the computer.
Note: The router currently does not support iOS or Android VPN client
software.
VPN uses DDNS or a static IP address to connect with your router.
To use a DDNS service, register for an account with a host name (sometimes called a
domain name).
You use the host name to access your network. The router supports these
accounts: NETGEAR www.no-ip.com, www.no-ip.com, and www.DynDNS.org.
If your Internet service provider (ISP) assigned a static WAN IP address (such as 50.196.x.x
or 10.x.x.x) that never changes to your Internet account, the VPN can use that IP address to
connect to your home network.
