Setting up your Tomato router to connect to My Private Network’s VPN should take just a few minutes using our OpenVPN application. Our app connects to the VPN via the SSL protocol. Please note that your Tomato router needs to be connected to the Internet and devices connected to it are able to browse the web before moving on with the instructions below. The steps below are for TomatoVPN (Shubby) version 1.28 (update 132) but the steps should generally apply to all Tomato routers.

Using a different router build? Select your correct router build for the SSL OpenVPN setup below:

Check Internet Connectivity

 

Make sure your router is connected to the internet and that you are able to browse the web. To check your location, please go to our IP Info page.

 
IP Info
 

This shows the IP Address and country that you are currently connecting from, in this example, the user is connecting from Singapore.

 
You will presumably have the WAN or Internet port of the Tomato connected to the LAN or Local port of your primary router.
 
You might want to configure the wireless network of the Tomato to be something with VPN Country in the name i.e. MPN GBR, MPN USA so you can tell which is which, but all of that is up to you.

Getting Started

 
Click on VPN Tunneling followed by OpenVPN Client found at the left side panel.
 
You will be directed to the OpenVPN Client Configuration page. Please make sure that you’re under the Basic tab under Client 1 and set up as per our configuration below:
 
tomato-openvpn-basic

 

 Start With Wan  Checkbox is ticked
 Interface Type  TUN
 Protocol  UDP
 Server Address / Port  GBR.mypn.co | 1194
 Firewall  Automatic 
 Authorization Mode  TLS
 Username/Password Authentication  Checkbox is ticked
 Username  Your My Private Network Username 
 Password  Your My Private Network Password
 Username Authen. Only  Checkbox is NOT ticked   
 Extra HMAC authorization  Outgoing (1)
 Create NAT on tunnel  Checkbox is ticked

 
Note: If you wish to use our Free service, the Server Address that you need to use is fre.mypn.co and your connection will be rotated between different countries we have in our Free VPN cluster.
 
To connect to any of our other servers, (ie. our USA servers) simply change the Server Address to reflect another location. For a list of server names, please refer to our complete list of servers here.
 
For example:
 
Change from GBR.mypn.co to USA.mypn.co if you want to connect to our servers in the USA, while keeping the port number intact.

Head on to the Advanced tab and set up as per our configuration below:

 Poll Interval  0
 Redirect Internet Traffic  Checkbox is ticked
 Accept DNS Configuration  Exclusive

route-method exe
keepalive 10 30
mssfix 1396
