Set Up VPN Client Internet Access in the DST Router
By default, the DST router is set up to allow VPN connections only to your home network, but
you can change the setting to allow Internet access. Accessing the Internet remotely through
a VPN might be slower than accessing the Internet directly.
To allow VPN clients to use your home Internet service:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window displays.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > VPN Service.
The VPN Service page displays.
5. Select the Enable VPN Service check box.
6. Scroll down to the Clients will use this VPN connection to access section, and select the All
sites on the Internet & Home Network radio button.
When you access the Internet with the VPN connection, instead of using a local Internet
service, you use the Internet service from your home network.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
8. Click For Windows or For Non Windows button and download the configuration files for
your VPN clients.
9. Unzip the configuration files and copy them to the folder where the VPN client is installed on
your device.
For a client device with Windows 64-bit system, the VPN client is installed at
C:\Program files\OpenVPN\config\ by default.
Block VPN Client Internet Access in the DST Router
By default, the DST router is set up this way to allow VPN connections only to your home
network, not to the Internet service for your home network. If you changed this setting to
allow Internet access, you can change it back.
To allow VPN clients to access only your home network:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
