Setup guide
No technical knowledge needed. Follow these steps and your whole home network will route through your chosen location automatically.
Inside you will find two small routers. They are identical in appearance. Each one has a sticker: one says Router A (Home) and one says Router B (Remote). Keep them separate.
Also in the box: two power adapters and two short ethernet cables.
Place Router A next to your home internet modem or router. Connect the WAN port (the single port on the left) to your modem or router using the ethernet cable. Then plug the power adapter into the wall.
The green LED on top will blink for about 30 seconds, then stay on. That means it is connected.
Hand Router B to a friend, family member, or colleague at the location you want your traffic to appear from. You can mail it, take it yourself when visiting, or leave it with someone you trust.
Any location with a broadband internet connection works — a flat, a house, an office. It does not need a special internet plan.
The person at the remote location connects Router B exactly the same way as Router A: WAN port to their modem or router using the ethernet cable, then plug in the power adapter.
No technical knowledge needed on their end. Just plug in two cables. That is all.
Once both routers have power and internet, they find each other and establish the WireGuard tunnel automatically. You do not need to do anything. The routers were pre-configured with each other's keys when you ordered.
If both green LEDs are on and steady, the connection is up.
Log in to your VPN Spot account and open the Dashboard. You will see a green "Connected" status next to your routing pair. The dashboard also shows your current exit IP address and the last time the routers communicated.
If you see "Disconnected", wait another 60 seconds and refresh. If it stays disconnected, see the troubleshooting section below.

In the meantime, follow the written steps above or contact us for personal help.

Check that both routers have a solid green LED. If a LED is off or blinking rapidly, the router does not have internet — check that the ethernet cable is firmly connected to the modem/router's LAN port (not WAN). Also confirm that the modem has an active internet connection.
Ask the person hosting Router B to confirm both LEDs are on. If Router B was previously connected and then lost power, it will reconnect automatically once power is restored — no configuration needed.
A cheap network switch (€10–15 from any electronics store) adds more ports. Plug the switch into your modem and connect the router to the switch.
You will need a travel router or a USB ethernet adapter to give Router A a wired connection. Alternatively, contact us and we can advise on your specific setup.
Restart the device you are checking from (laptop or phone). Your device may be caching the old IP. Also make sure your device is connected to your home Wi-Fi (which is served by Router A), not a mobile network.
Your routers ship pre-configured. Follow these same steps and you are done.
