VPN on Your Router
A VPN on your router can cover every device on your home network. Here is how it works — and what CasperVPN supports today.

What a Router VPN Does
When a VPN runs on your router, every device on your home network sends its traffic through the VPN, including devices that cannot run a VPN app, such as smart TVs and game consoles.
Trade-offs
Setup happens in your router's admin panel and depends on the router model and its firmware. A router has far less computing power than a phone or laptop, so a router VPN is often slower. Every device on the network uses the VPN, whether it needs it or not.
Does CasperVPN Work on Routers?
Not today. CasperVPN does not offer router configuration files or router setup at the moment. Today CasperVPN is on the App Store for iPhone and iPad. One CasperVPN account covers up to 3 devices at a time.
