VPN on Fritzbox router

BJK

Hello,

PIA got my interest because of the IPsec option, which is supported on my Fritzbox 7390 router (and not any other VPN options, like openVPN).

Is it possible to setup a  VPN connection directly from my router to PIA?

I need the following information to complete the VPN file for the Fritzbox.

Is this going to work? Has anyone experience? I don't want to flash my router with other firmware.

Thanks,

Boudewijn Krenning

there must be a GUI somewhere on your router.  no?  I believe this is the background config file that the GUI would manipulate.  It's probably not wise for you to mess with it.

anyway, you'll need to go to the client support page
https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/pages/client-support/

sign in in the client sign in box, and then have PIA create for you login credentials for L2TP/PPTP which are different from the credentials used for openvpn.

all the router should need to connect is the username, password, and shared secret.

I also would love to know how to set this up on my Fritz box 7360..seems to be very little information on how to do this.
