CLICK APPLY SETTINGS
Leave all settings not mentioned above as their default setting.
Verify a successful IPVanish connection
Navigate to Status > OpenVPN
- You should now see a CONNECTED SUCCESS message.
- Visit IPVanish’s IP Check to verify your new IP address and virtual location.
In some cases you may notice that the location is not showing the same location as the server you have input in your router settings; this is because geo tracking tools are often tricked by VPN connections. As long as you see an IP address that is not the same as your normal Internet IP address then you are indeed connected to IPVanish.
Back up your settings
Navigate to Administration > Backup.
- Click the Backup button.
- A file named nvrambak.bin will be saved to your computer.
- You can load nvrambak.bin to restore your settings in the event of a reset.
How to change the IPVanish server
- Copy the new IPVanish server address from the above server list.
- Paste the server into the Server IP/Name field.
- Click Apply Settings.
