Asus RT-AC68U User manual

Setup Guide Asus Router

Step 1

Connect to the ASUS router via an Ethernet cable or wirelessly.

The computer should be cabled to a LAN port of the VPN router or connected to ASUS or ASUS_5G

network.

Open up your web browser, type in 192.168.1.1 in the address bar and hit enter.

It will prompt you to enter the username/password. The default values are: admin (username) and

admin (password).

Once you log in, go to "VPN" option in the left hand side menu.

Select "VPN Client" tab and click "Add profile" button.

Step 2

Choose "PPTP" tab in the appeared window, fill the fields.

"Description" is the name of the connection, it can be any as you like, we recommend to set it to

"StrongVPN".

Please note: if you already have the connection with the same name it will not let you save the

settings.

Fill full Server Address to "VPN Server" field. (Your server is not "str-XXXXXX.reliablehosting.com", it

is just an example.)

Enter your "Username" and "Password".

These are not your email and password with us that you use to log into the Customer Area, also do

not use "sXXXXXX" and "XXXXXXXXXX" these are just examples.

"Server address", "Username" and "Password" are your credentials that you get from the Customer

Area at the beginning of this tutorial. If you are not sure where to get them, scroll up the page, you

can find the instructions there.

"PPTP Options" should be set to "Auto".

Click "OK" button when done.

Step 3

You can then click "Activate" to start up the VPN connection.

Step 4

When the connection is established you will see the blue check mark in the "Connection Status"

field.

Step 5

Now you need to perform two more steps if you want to get some video streaming servers working.

If you will connect/reconnect to the same VPN server these steps are needed to be done only once.

Go to "System Log" option in the menu, select "General Log" tab.

In the appeared log you need to find the line containing the word "DNS address" (you can use Ctrl+F

keyboard shortcut to find it on the web page). There you can see primary and secondary DNS

addresses, see the example below:

Jan 29 15:35:23 pptp[1009] primary DNS address 127.0.1.1

Jan 29 15:35:23 pptp[1009] secondary DNS address 127.0.2.1

Copy or write down the first DNS server address. Do not use the 127.0.1.1, this is just an example.

Step 6

Then proceed to "WAN" in the menu, select "Internet Connection" tab.

In the "WAN DNS Setting" section set "No" for "Connect to DNS Server automatically" option.

This will reveal two fields below, use them for manual DNS setup, in the first field enter the DNS

server address that you got from the previous step and 208.67.220.220 to the second field.

Click "Apply" button.

Done. You are connected.
