@@Mexitplans Thanks for the video. The only problem with Nord VPN is that is is OVPN only, not Wireguard. Mullvad VPN offers both OVPN and Wireguard modes (if that is the right word)
@@rootcanal7188 honestly there is very little difference in openvpn and WireGuard if your internet is fiber optics. If you have a slower cable internet then one over the other might have some meaningful speed increase.
@@Mexitplans Thank you for explaining.
I really like how you constantly distinguish between vpn client and vpn server. It's the subtle difference that helps me understand which is which, what goes where, and why it matters.
It’s a big difference and something. Important to know. I break down all the terms in my vpn essentials course and provide labs on how to setup the different deployments. Plus the NEW Support Community had the up to date latest information on real world scenarios and field deployments. Check them out.

This guy explained all about the VPN options better than anyone else.
Thank you
great video man, you covered everything instead of just shilling 👍
Thank you.
Great info - thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Great great great video 👍 very informative.
Thanks for watching. I’m around next week if you need help.
I love how you explain stuff even though your not a tech guy, beside being informative, its so simple to understand. I am a hard core nerd guy which I struggle to explain stuff in simple terms, people don't see how good you are until you explain to them in the way they understood it.
Nice Job Bro, subscribing now to your channel, please do a review on the ExpressVPN Aircove, I kind of like the firmware of expressvpn and planning to buy the Aircove Go, but I would like to know what are your comments
Thank you. In my corporate career my job was to explain very technical concepts to IT security teams for over 20
Years. I’ve been in the tech field since token ring. I thank you for watching and being a part of the channel.
Excellent video
If you like this one you should check out the course. It fully explains VPNs and how to set up this router for 3 different scenarios. Check out the free preview lessons and download the VPN Features Guide.

Great stuff!!!. Would you say that connecting tbe router to a physical location in the US instead of a von is more secure or the same?
Hey Cristino. The question of is a private vpn better than a public service vpn has many layers. I just wrote an article about the is on my blog: www.mexitplans.com/post/how-to-work-securely-and-remote-from-anywhere-using-vpn-technology
The short answer is there is a Big benefit to having a residential IP over a public service server IP address. However, when it comes to security they are both equal. In the VPN a essentials course their is VPN Features Guide that describes a good, better, and best approach as it pertains to different types of users.
Buying one of these and so I’ve been investigating its features. One of the things that I didn’t know about was the failover mode. I was going to buy a separate router for that, but now all i have to do is connect my netgear m1 router via usb whilst having my main internet connected to the slate job done. Also im covered if there’s a power outage too. Man thanks for the info. Now let me get out of these comments and give a like n subscribe. Keep up the good work bro
Thanks for the feedback. Check out the VPN course. I show you 3 different setup options and I have some more advanced features that I may create a lesson on.
Does it work with your work pc from abroad ?
@@BasicIslamTV absolutely. To understand how and why check out the VPN Essentials course:
mexitplans.thinkific.com/courses/vpn-essentials
@@BasicIslamTV I will be getting a work issued pc so i hope so, to be honest i cant see why not because the vpn will be working its magic from the router itself.
@@personal-development-strategy I also got a pc from work, but to access our company customer database company have built in VPN. What router VPN will be best. I am thinking of working from Bali 😅
We are retiring and will travel from Mexico to Argentina, over a 4-5 year period. We will always be in rentals. We are 55 and 60 and not tech savvy. We knew we would need a vpn, but did not realize we’d need our own router, to take along with us ?
Congrats that sounds like an awesome adventure. If you want all of the devices in the home behind the router to be on Vpn, a router is recommended. The other option is to install the vpn software on each independent device. Nord is great for that because it offers clients for just about all devices. In your case, if you have the router option. You would simply plug one cable into the router of the internet service provide when you arrive and then your devices would connect your wifi instead of the hosts and be setup for vpn. One cool feature I forgot to mention about this device is that the router has a physical button on the side that can be set to enable or disable vpn at anytime. This is a very useful feature.
Hi Monte
From my understanding I need to but the routers. One for my home and one for where I want to be, is that correct?
Does the first router have to be on the whole time?
Yes. You need two and the server router needs to be on all the time. Check out the course or schedule a session for more details. Https://linktr.ee/mexitplans
Hi, great video. I'm not great understanding tech. I'm currently in Merida for a couple of more weeks. I just been watching Netflix on my computer without a problem but not much else. Can I download the VPN while I'm here in Mexico? And since I'm just watching on my computer and its just me, can I do this without the VPN router? Thanks
Yes and yes. Thanks for watching here is the link to get NordVPN. It helps support the channel:

Have you looked into DPNs decentralized PN. How do those compare to this?
I have looked into the one on the market. This is a decentralized vpn in that you are not using a public service or server. So in that regard they are similar. I have my reservations about the one commercial Technology that one I saw. If you would like to discuss the merits of each or your particular situation, please schedule a call.

Hello and thanks for the content. I will hit you up soon enough for advice. Im in the UK but interested in moving to mainland Europe, not allowed to work outside the UK though. In theory i should be able to get away with it following your advice? I understand its very random with these companies if they sre actively looking or dont care
You are welcome. Https://linktr.ee/mexitplans when you are ready.
This is awesome! Would this work without having to download onto laptop? My work laptop doesn’t allow any downloads.
Absolutely. All the devices behind the router would be on a vpn connection. The best option is to setup a private vpn. Full explanation and step-by-step instructions are in the vpn essentials Course. Or if you prefer for me to do the configuration, you can book a remote installation session. Links to both are below.

@@Mexitplans Thank you so much!!🙂
I clicked on your link but didn't see option... looking to book a session for virtual install. When are you available and how much?
On the course you have does it explain how to work from a regular customer service job with their own corporate vpn and still showing my location is un the US even though I'm living in Mexico? Or if I search on Google what's my location will it show that I'm in Atlanta instead of Mexico? I want to be sure so I can get the course and then the routers and VPN.
Great video btw, thank you.
The course shows how to use a router to connect to a vpn in Atlanta and then use your corporate vpn client to connect to your job. It also tells you about the features you need to enable to make sure you don’t accidentally let your corporate vpn connect without the router being on a vpn connection.
Awesome! I'll be in touch then! I really appreciate it!
Diego I sent you an email after you completed the course. Please verify that you got it. If not I’ll resend it.
What are your thoughts on GLinet’s most recent travel router: MT3000 (Beryl AX) Pocket-Sized Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Travel router compared to the Slate
It is not as powerful as the 1800 and has less ports. It’s small size isn’t worth the trade off for me.
I also had a client who purchased one thinking it would work and ran into many issues. She later purchased a second 1800.
If you are looking for a smaller router without wifi 6 check out the 1300 but keep in mind it’s not as powerful as the 1800
@@Mexitplans this is great feedback! I will keep my slate ax routers!
@@andreacoooper awesome. I’m here to help if you need assistance configuring them. Also, I’m launching a support community real soon. This will have up-to-date best practices and recommendations for using the router from the installations I’ve done around the world.
Thank you, great info! Thinking about booking a session but want to have all the equipment beforehand. Would I just need two travel vpns for the US location and one to take with me? Anything else?
You would need two travel routers total for one location. If you want to have redundancy you would need a third router and another location.

@@Mexitplans and to confirm, no software is needed, just the routers, right? Preciate you bro
@@Mexitplans purchased course, will reach out if I have any other questions but hope to be squared away with it as I have to buy both routers now! Maybe 3 for that fault tolerance!
@@romeopmusic6319 awesome. You only need software if you want a backup option. Feel free to schedule a session if you need to.
Thanks for sharing you knowledge on VPN. Can I purchase this NetSlateATX1800, alone, or do I need both a VPN service (NordVPN), and the above mentioned router?
You need both to do the configuration in the video. Alone the VPN router will allow you to setup a site to site Vpn but with the NordVPN software you will be able to do client side Vpn and “hide” your computer in the United States or anywhere in the world.
@@Mexitplans I don’t understand, The company won’t let employees install NordVPN on the company’s laptop.

Here is my situation I have a IPTV box (MAG254) which will not connect to my internet, I get a Error code 1020. I believe it is because my ISP provider is blocking the IPTV's portal address. My thinking is to connect another router with VPN functonalty to my existing router(TP-Link Wireless N Router WR840N model:TL-WR840N) and ther by connecting the Mag254 o the VPN.Will my theory work? this is all going to be done wireless.
Wayne. I would start to troubleshoot with the iptv box and see if it had an ip address first. What you describe is possible with a hw vpn but it may be going the long way to a simple answer.
@@Mexitplans thanks the ipvt box is a mag 254 , no ip address . I may have to go the route of a rouer with openvpn instead of a PPTPvpn, thing is how to connect the two routers wirelessly( cable run is not possible.)

I bought your course and setup two wireguard servers at locations using atx 1800. both locations have download 300 mbps and upload 25 mbps. when i use my travel router to access as a client i only get 10 mbps download and 10 mbps upload for either wireguard server. Is something wrong or is this expected given the sources?
If both internet connections have 300/25 advertised speeds then you should get 25 Mbs for your vpn connection. The vpn connection will always be the slowest of the two speeds. When you do a Speedtest without vpn do you get 25 Mbs? If so, we should look at your configuration on the routers. Https://calendly.com/mexitplans-cal/tech-session-virtual-install to setup a session.
@@Mexitplans That is what I guessed. Yeah, I just tested without VPN. I am getting about 21 mbps upload so it; seems I am only utilizing half of the bandwidth.

Wait so if I want to continue to play my U.S. based video games on my desktop when I get to Mexico, I’ll need a vpn?
I don’t think so for your games. But US television yes
im sorry for this stupid question but whats the difference from a vpn service and a vpn router?
Excellent question. A Router is a hardware device that can run as a vpn server (host) and in some cases a client. A VPN service is a software client that runs on other devices, iPhones, fire sticks and etc. Examples of Vpn services are NordVPN and others. With VPN software it’s on one device at a time. With a VPN router every device that is connect behind the router can be on the vpn tunnel.
My company uses a vpn on my desktop. I want to show that I am in the U.S although I’m abroad. I also have a phone with the company. Can I hide that I’m out of the country on both my computer and cell phone. I’m not a tech person at all.

Does a software has to be installed to the laptop
No. Check this out for the best solution. www.mexitplans.com/post/how-to-work-securely-and-remote-from-anywhere-using-vpn-technology
I'm most interested in security, i.e. not being hacked. Would this setup provide the highest level of security, or is there something else I'd need to be doing?
BTW, referred here by Qroo Paul channel.
Well that’s a whole other story. Security is best approached in layers. In really depends on your Operating system, security awareness for scams like phishing attacks, desktop anti malware software (antivirus), desktop firewall Configuration, network firewall configuration and etc.
A VPN doesn’t not inherently provide for more than the connection over a public wifi. What I mean is if you are using the wifi at Starbucks, this provides more security for your device’s Internet connect than not having such a solution. However, you can still be hacked by visiting the wrong website or responding to that late Amazon shipment email. I hope this makes some senses.
Thanks for joining and checking out the channel. I hope you will stick around for future videos. Paul and Linda are the absolute Best.
Do you have an option for someone who needs to be hard wired while traveling? I dont need to hide my location,. I just need to be hard wired at airbnb or hotels?

I put the disclaimer in the video because I knew I would get similar questions. Please watch the first video on VPNS entitled “Don’t get fired” it explains the risks associated with relying on this technology.
@@Mexitplans Do you think starlink by Elon Musk is a solution to this question?

@@Mexitplans nice! Was wondering about the Question Cartell was asking, if it provides internet access without a job knowing an employees location.
@@Soul2sage it does not. The IP Address of the starlink is in Mexico.
Will this device with the vpn configuration installed, actually hide my IP location & my computer physical location.
In Mexico, have telemex internet, we connect the router with vpn to modem, and then we have our computer hard wired to router, will it hide IP & PHYSICAL LOCATION? Like if I opened Google maps or weather on computer, would it show the city I set vpn for.
The computer is a company computer
yes. Look at this video ruclips.net/video/HRU4138lVWI/видео.html . Also, at the end of this video I show you the examples of this working.
