My router has a static ip on the internet. I want to watch espn3 but I'm often blacked out when I am away from home.

Is there a way to set up my home router as a proxy server?
 
You could set up a vpn to connect to your home network while away if that is what you are trying to do. The openvpn server is easy to set up while on merlin's fw.
 
would the PPTP VPN work the same way? The reason I ask is that I use an iOS device and PPTP support is built in.
 
From what I understand PPTP and L2TP are less secure than OVPN.

The 68U will generate its own complete .ovpn client with a 1024 cipher

Im new to this VPN stuff but was able to set up the keys required for 2048 cipher. I have a rough guide a few pages in OVPN @ 2048. You can skip the cert creation is you want the default 1024 cipher.

I am working on a better guide and should have it ready soon, A day or two.
