In general, TP-Link Wi-Fi Router has 4 scenarios for VPN function, including working as a VPN Server(Case1 and Case2), connecting to a remote VPN server as a VPN Client(Case 3 and Case4)
Now, this article will summarize and introduce these scenarios respectively.
Case 1: Working as a PPTP VPN Server
Please refer to the FAQ How to use PPTP VPN to access your home network through the Wi-Fi Routers (new logo)?
Troubleshooting guide: What should I do if VPN doesn't work on Wi-Fi Router?
Case 2. Working as an OpenVPN Server
Please refer to the FAQ How to use OpenVPN to access your home network through the Wi-Fi Routers (new logo)?
Troubleshooting guide: How do I troubleshoot if the OpenVPN is not connecting
Case 3. Connecting to the remote VPN server as a VPN Client(Only for the router that supports the VPN client feature)
Please refer to How Do I Use VPN Client to Access a Remote VPN Server.
Troubleshooting guide: What should I do if VPN doesn't work on Wi-Fi Router?
Case 4. Connecting to the remote VPN server as a VPN Client.
Please refer to the FAQ How to Configure PPTP/L2TP VPN Connection on Your Router (new logo)?
PPTP VPN Server is used to create a VPN connection for remote device. To use the VPN feature, you should enable PPTP VPN Server on your router, and configure the PPTP connection on the remote device. Please follow the steps below to set up a PPTP VPN connection.
In the OpenVPN connection, the home network can act as a server, and the remote device can access the server through the router which acts as an OpenVPN Server gateway. To use the VPN feature, you should enable OpenVPN Server on your router, and install and run VPN client software on the remote device. Please follow the steps below to set up an OpenVPN connection.
The VPN Client feature of TP-Link routers allows devices in your home network to access remote VPN servers, without the need to install VPN software on each device.
To use the VPN Client feature, simply configure a VPN connection and choose your desired devices on your router, then these devices can access the remote VPN server. Please follow the steps below:
1.Visit tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the router.
2.Go to Advanced VPN Client.
3.Enable VPN Client, then save the settings.
Rapid VPN Deployment- If you're new to Unraid or haven't otherwise deployed a VPN, the biggest reason to implement WireGuard is that it's extremely fast to deploy. This stands in stark contrast to deploying the OpenVPN Docker container which, while certainly faster than deploying an OpenVPN server from scratch, still takes some effort. Even with all of the great guides available, you still have to know what you're doing. With WireGuard, we're talking 15 minutes tops, assuming you have the prerequisite dynamic DNS already set up (if not, add maybe another 30 minutes).
Security- A VPN makes your remote laptop just another device on the network, just as if you were at home. In doing so, this allows you to access all of your network's resources locally. If you don't utilize a VPN, then you have to port forward to make your Unraid homelab's local resources available over the internet. Do this enough times and the firewall that separates your home network from the internet starts to look like swiss cheese with all of the holes you've punched through it with those port forwards.
Low overhead Better Battery Life- WireGuard, as described by its developer, isn't a chatty protocol. The client sends its request and then shuts up. It tries to avoid keep alive handshakes if they're not needed. As a result, when you're working on a laptop on wireless, your wireless card has a higher likelihood of being able to idle down which leads to better battery life. (An idle wifi card uses something like ~20 mW at idle but can easily climb to ~2W under load). Anecdotally, in my own testing, I am noticing about a
