Access the VPN menu on the remote computer.

This computer will be the computer with public Internet access; not the computer functioning as the server. Click on the "Start" button, or Windows logo, from your Windows 7 desktop. Type "VPN" into the search box located at the bottom of the floating menu that appears on your screen. Select "Set up a virtual private network VPN connection" after it appears in the search results, which by default should be located within the Control Panel. This will launch the VPN wizard.

Configure the outgoing VPN connection. Enter the domain name or IP address of the computer or server you want to connect to within the field for "Internet address. Enter the username and password that allows you to access the network, then click the "Connect" button. Initiate the outgoing VPN connection. Access adapter settings on the incoming computer. The computer with the incoming connection will be the other computer functioning as the server. Click on the "Start" menu of the second computer, then type "Network and Sharing" into the search bar.

Select "Network and Sharing Center" from the options provided, then click on "Change adapter settings" to manage your connections. Indicate the name of the computer you want given VPN access. Choose the users, or name of the computer on which you established the outgoing VPN settings, then click on the "Next" button. Establish the incoming VPN connection. Select the option that indicates you want all users connecting to this network through the Internet, then click again on "Next.

The outgoing computer will now be able to access the private network through VPN. Method 2. You will need these settings to set up a VPN connection on the computer with public Internet access; including the IP address or domain name of the VPN server and the username and password for accessing the network.

Access the VPN Network menu. They do packet inspection to look at the setup and drop at their discretion. Hotels and schools do this all the time too. Now I know that this is less and less of an issue as time goes on, and major ISPs have been great lately about upgrading their infrastructure and keeping oversubscription to a minimum, and thereby reducing motivation for throttling… well that and lawsuits… But, as good as things are now, it still happens. You knew exactly what he meant, and you just came here to strut your stuff and make yourself feel good in an attempt to act smarter.

I edited your comment to remove the harsh language. This a family friendly site. What he said was technically incorrect. I pointed out where he was wrong technically. Hopefully it helps clear things up for someone. Here is the exact quote copied from above. I never said VPN traffic was invisible. Listen, take your evident emotions out of the equations here. TheGeekPub is an awesome site, I love seeing articles pop up. This one was great too. Perhaps I should have led with that. Sorry Mike.

What you said is absolutely accurate. I am done here. I hear you, but they CAN effectively throttle and block it. I thought Wireguard would be faster? OpnSense is a competitor of pfSense and a fork of the later if I got it right. Some friends of mine adviced me to use OpnSense. Did you study and compared both before using pfSense? If yes, what made you choose? Do you have any advice for setting up a pfsense device?

I have found almost no information online about how to do this from scratch with one of these barebones devices. Do you recommend just buying a device with pfsense preconfigured? Rather than connecting the home networks of your homes to each other I would create an extra network and treat that as untrusted. At your home you should have your private home network and a separate network for the site-to-site vpn to your brother and son.

Rather than connecting your 3 home networks to each other and and hoping that some port based firewall rules might keep you safe, I recommend a different setup. Imagine your 3 houses sharing a common garage. You, your brother and your son all have keys to the garage, both only you have a key to your home.

So if you want to share stuff with your brother or son you drop it off in the garage and let them get it from there. If your son catches some malware it might burn down his home and the common garage, but it wont affect your home or your brothers home. Rule 2: Devices on the site-to-site network can only connect to other devices on the site-to-site network, nothing else. Each of you put a nas box on the site-to-site network and those nas boxes will be able to connect to each other, but nothing else.

Lets say you add a nas box to your private home network too. You put your family photos and videos and what not on that one. Thanks a lot for this video and also for that one on your network tour, you got me into setting my own pfsense-based infra. Everything in the post made sense to a networking noob like me. Started reading the comments and found a cluster schmuck of debate over twisted words from a few sentences that were accurate and clearly worded.

Clearly you are being disruptive for the sake of of your ego at this point. Please consider other people who just came here for information and reference rather than engaging gross Internet culture toxicity. About The Author. Related Posts. Rob Claggy on April 4, at pm.
