    Point-to-point VPN Questions

    Okay, sounds good, but how do I do that? I need the RT-N16 in Mexico to have a WAN IP address from Comcast in Colorado, so that my Roku and smart TV appear to be in Colorado.

    Router-to-router VPN to Asuswrt-Merlin OpenVPN server?

    I currently have an ASUS RT-N16 running DD-WRT in my condo in Mexico, connecting to StrongVPN to give me a U.S. IP address. Could I instead run Asuswrt-Merlin on an RT-N66 at my home in the U.S. and connect to its OpenVPN server? If so, how difficult would it be? (I was able to set up my current...
