# VPN Feature
The VPN feature on the router helps encrypt all network traffic and hides the IP address for all connected devices. This allows users to access region-blocked content and enhance security.
**Steps to use the VPN feature on Genrouter:**\
**Step 1:** Go to the VPN Manager section
**Step 2:** Click "Add VPN." At this point, you will have three options from three services: ExpressVPN, NordVPN, and OpenVPN.
Select the appropriate service, country name, enter the username and password ⇒ click "Add"
After setup, reload the page until the VPN status shows "Connected"
**Step 3:** Go back to the Devices Manager section to set up VPN for devices.\
For devices that need the VPN connection, select "OVPN" in the Proxy Type section.
In the "Add Proxy/VPN/WAN" section, go to the VPN Manager and select the VPN account you just set up ⇒ click "Add"
