8.To apply the configuration, follow the instructions for your Asus or TP-Link router. The importing procedure of the VPN configuration for a router from another manufacturer is very similar.

WireGuard is a modern VPN protocol, so some routers may not support it yet. |

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) need only one port for bidirectional traffic. Port numbers from 0 to 1023 are well-known ports or system ports. These ports are used by the system for common network services. The default port for unencrypted HTTP traffic is 80. The default port for encrypted HTTPS traffic is 443. |

You can activate only one VPN for Router configuration per subscription. If you want to activate it for a different router, first deactivate it for the current one. |
