Hardware

So you’ve decided to change the firmware on your router from the one provided by your hardware manufacturer to the more open and secure OpenWrt firmware. Congratulations!

If you have your own router with OpenWrt software, you have probably thought more than once about how to set up a VPN server on it so that you can connect to your local network from outside your home/office and have access to local data, such as a network drive or printer.

You are probably aware that it is very important that the website you visit, especially the one where you enter any data (including login and password) is secured with a so-called green padlock, i.e. served by https:// before the name of the website.
