trying to set up vodafone hg659
Hi,
I'm trying to set up the above router to use PIA but having never used a vpn before i'm not sure where to start the router settings do allow setup of a vpn and i've been looking at the guides and cant see the info that relates to what my router is looking for. There are 3 options under VPN on my router L2TP, IPsec & Tunnel. IPsec looks like the one i'm after but not sure how to go about it
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you show us some screenshots of the options you have available in all three categories? This way it will be much easier for us to tell you what to put there!
L2TP and IPSec are complementary to eachother: L2TP in itself only deals with the VPN, while IPSec deals with the encryption layer on top of L2TP (hence why it is often called L2TP/IPSec, because they go together). The tunnel section likely contains a few additional options to use with L2TP/IPSec.
