VPN Client is used to create VPN connections for devices in your home network to access a remote VPN server. To use the VPN feature, simply configure a VPN connection and choose your desired devices on your Deco router, then these devices can access the remote VPN server. Please follow the steps below:

1. Launch the Deco APP, go to More>Advanced>VPN Client, and tap Add VPN Server, choose Custom.

2. Select OpenVPN, enter the Surfshark username and password and import the config file required by Surfshark company.

Note: Surfshark service credentials are different from your Surfshark account credentials, namely your email address and your password. You'll need Surfshark service credentials to connect to the VPN using the manual OpenVPN configuration method in the router.
