To use the ExpressVPN app for routers:
1. Download and install the latest firmware update for your router. You can find this on our website or in your router’s user manual. If you have any questions about this process, contact our support team 24/7.
2. Set up an account with us by creating a new username and password. Then download and unzip the OpenVPN configuration files from here: https://www.expressvpn After downloading these files, please open then in Notepad (PC) or TextEdit (Mac). Then save each file with “.ovpn” extension (for example: “Germany – Frankfurt 3 – UDP 53”). Please note that all characters in the file names must be lowercase letters with no spaces between words
3It’s now time to start configuring your router! Please log into its web UI interface and go to its “Network” or “Internet” settings page (this may vary depending on your make and model). Look for fields labeled “WAN”, “External Network”, or something similar, then chose the option to add/edit/delete a custom configuration profile/policy/etc., Often times this will simply involve selecting “+ Add Profile” or something similar
5Click “Create Profile”, then name it whatever you like (“ExpressVPN”, etc.). Next, under “Type”, select the option that says “OpenVPN”. Now look for fields called “Server Address”, “Remote ID”, or something similar, then enter expressvpnserveraddress into each of them (replacing with either an actual server address like us-washington-dc-01 .expressvpnserveraddress .com OR an alternate DNS entry like washington-dc .us – ovpn ).* Next locate fields called Tunnel Device,” TUNnel Protocol,” Transport Protocol,” Encryption cypher,” Hash Algorithm,” Username Authentication,” Password Authentication,” Certificate Authority Verification,” Static Key Verification.” Make sure they are all configured as follows:”Tunnel Device”: TUNProtocol”: UDPTransport Protocol”: TCPEncryption Cipher”: AES-256CBCHash Algorithm”: SHA512Username/Password Authentication”: ENABLEDCertificate Authority Verification”: DISABLEDStatic Key Verification”:”DISABLED 6The final step is specifying encryption keys in two places within the profile editor windows It should look likesubnet= 255 .255 .0 .0 secret static .key 7That’s it! Save changes and exit out of router’s web UI interface Now it’s time test out your new connection Try going to www dot whatsmyip dot org OR ipchicken dot com from a device that’s connected wirelessly throught he router You should see that indeed your IP address has changed and appears from teh chosen country
