Processing power is the key to high-performance routing for VPN users, having a fast processor is imperative for the constant encryption and decryption of every packet of Data sent and received. Simply put the faster the (CPU) processor, the faster the VPN Speeds & this 1.6GHz is great for VDSL lines (80/20) and a great budget entry level Router for Full Fibre line speeds!

This router will be configured to run along side your existing router (known as a dual router configuration or dual router setup), this means you will have 2 gateways out on to the Internet, 1 secure behind your encrypted VPN router and 1 through your normal router giving you the best of both worlds!

All devices connected to this VPN Router either by Ethernet or WI-FI will be protected behind the VPN.

Using a VPN is by far the most reliable way to protect your privacy and secure your On-line activities. A VPN hides your IP address and encrypts all the traffic you send and receive even from your Internet provider!

Running your VPN from a router will only use 1 of your allowed connections, cover every device in your home, freeing up more connections to use outside your property on family mobiles etc..

We recommend Lightway Protocol an adaptation of WireGuard, simply because WireGuard is the faster of the Two Protocols, OpenVPN has been around a lot longer but has slower throughput.

If you would like to know more information on why We Tv Box Company recommend Wireguard please read HERE

Using a VPN provider within a router means that the setup only has to be done once and covers all of your devices.

A few benefits of using a VPN: - Mask your Internet connection / IP address, allowing you to access content and sites while being secure. A VPN will help you stay safe and secure On-line while above all else keeping your private stuff private. Download and upload files in private, bypass Country's web censorship and content surveillance, stream services without restrictions & use search engines without having your searches logged, even from your Internet service provider!

If you want a fast VPN router then don't buy a budget router you'll simply be disappointed and wasting your money - That's a Fact!!
The LINKSYS WRT1900ACS with Express Firmware installed is a TOP END VPN Router, producing the very good VPN through speeds making it a great choice.

Any VPN service will always give you a small loss in speed, this is due to the hardware having to encrypt and decrypt every packet of data sent and received and adding latency to the connection.
This is why routers with less powerful CPU's and Ram (Hardware that handles the VPN) only produce 20-30% of your line speed.

This ExpressVPN Flashed Router can be added to any FTTC, FTTP & Full Fibre networks, (including Virgin), BT, BT Infinity, SKY, EE, Plusnet, TalkTalk etc.
