VPN Setup Help Please


Recommended Posts

I want to start being more secure with my connection. I just recently setup a VPN with www.privateinternetaccess.com

 

 

Here is the configuration files

https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/openvpn/openvpn.zip

 

I have seen other posts where the configuration was altered for the user. I have tried creating it on my own without any luck. If anyone could please help me it would be awesome. Thank you.

 

Edit:

 

After digging around the netduma forums, I found someone else with my vpn. I copy pasted the text and changed the server to my setup.

dev tun
proto udp
