Asustor AS1002T NAS setup

in Other Devices VPN Setup
Hi All,

I recently purchased an Asustor AS1002T NAS and have been trying to set it up with PIA but up until a few moments ago I was stumped. By searching through this forum and piecing things together I was able to come up with a solution, which I am grateful for, especially as I'm not tech-savvy. For the benefit of others I would like to post it here.

  1. On your Asustor dashboard select Settings > Network > Network interface > Add > 'Create VPN'
  2. A new window will pop up title 'Add VPN Configuration'. Select OpenVPN and next > General Settings and next. You will then be presented with a series of boxes to fill in which I will now go into detail about
Additionally, it would appear that there is some software issue where upon clicking Apply on these settings the page will hang while trying to connect. I find restarting the box solves this. I'm currently looking for explanations/solutions for this.

I hope this helps.

    in step 2, what are you using for the address?  on the page your link goes to I can only see addresses like this:  

    us-east.privateinternetaccess.com

    My asustor doesn't accept an address like that.  I assume it needs an Ip address?
