Summary
February 1, 2019
Been using ExpressVpn for a couple of years without any problems aside from occasional slow connection speed. However, for the past few months, I was not able to connect to it on any of my iOS devices without turning them off first. And I would have do this every time I need to use Expressvpn and this means numerous times a day. I contacted Expressvpn support and was told this is an iOS issue, nothing to do with them. I wonder does anyone else had this issue. Also, I just signed up Vyprvpn’s 3 day trial but discovered that I can’t contact live chat without vpn being on. That’s useless to me when my vpn is down and can’t contact support for immediate solution.

All the VPN services I’ve looked at previously require you to install a client app on your computer or device – will any of these work with, say, the VPN client in a DD-WRT’d router too allow own to pipe his entire LAN over the VPN?

Hi Eve,
Yeah I know what you mean by using clients, it becomes a pain to protect everything on your network. I have had success with Nord VPN on setting up on DD-Wrt they also have a handy article which talks you through all the steps on their site:

Hope that helps.
