5. VPN setup on a WireGuard-capable router:

Some routers support WireGuard directly, so you can set up the VPN right on your router. That means every device connected to that router automatically uses the VPN.

Router setup process:

• Step 1: Log in to your router’s configuration interface (usually by entering the router IP in your browser, e.g. 192.168.1.1).
• Step 2: Go to your router’s VPN settings and choose the WireGuard option.
• Step 3: Import the configuration file you received from us.
• Step 4: Turn on the VPN to use it across the whole network.

List of routers that support WireGuard:

1. FritzBox: Currently, some FritzBox models support WireGuard directly.

2. Ubiquiti Unifi Dream Machine (UDM): Supports WireGuard via custom configurations.

3. Ubiquiti Unifi Cloud Key: Here you can enable WireGuard through extensions.

4. Netgear Nighthawk XR500: Supports WireGuard after a firmware update.

5. MikroTik routers: Many models support WireGuard natively.

If your router doesn’t support WireGuard directly, you can use a VPN client on your computer or smartphone, or add a VPN-capable router to your network as an additional device.
