How to connect to NordVPN with a dedicated IP on GL.iNet routers?

This article introduces the steps to set up a NordVPN connection with a dedicated IP on GL.iNet routers.

We use the GL-AXT1800 as an example.

  1. Log in to your Nord Account and check the dedicated IP details. As shown below, the assigned IP is 193.32.211.142, and the server is United Kingdom #1625.

    1 valid configuration file has been detected. Please enter your username and password. If these configurations use different passwords, you will need to enter the corresponding password for each configuration file.

  5. Click the three-dot icon on the right to connect. You may also go to VPN Dashboard, select the configuration file and click Apply to establish a connection.

  6. Once connected, check your public IP here and confirm if it matches your dedicated IP from NordVPN.
