Instructions for this custom VPN configuration.

[Beasta]

Create instructions in the readme for setting up the most recent raspbian image with the configuration described in the readme. I'd like the instructions to follow the same format as https://github.com/schollz/raspberry-pi-turnkey . Create detailed instructions on how to get it to work with purevpn credentials.

It will be considered complete once i have a working image.

@mindsgn please note that you'll need a raspberry pi with usb ethernet dongle (preferably this one). You'll also need a purevpn account with the dedicated IP and port forwarding option.

[Beasta]

@mindsgn if you're willing to setup a zk.money account i'd send $50 in dai to cover your purevpn and usb ethernet expenses

[mindsgn]

@Beasta I have a raspberry pi 3, It has a built-in ethernet port. would I still need a USB ethernet?

[Beasta]

yes. as described in the specification, the device is meant to be plugged in on one end to internet connected ethernet and and on the other end be connected to any other ethernet device. So it will connect via ethernet to an internet providing connection and it will provide internet to an ethernet connected device.

[mindsgn]

@Beasta okay I understand, I got the USB to ethernet device, I just need to check if I can cover the purevpn fees.

[mindsgn]

hey @Beasta, just to keep you updated I have just finished doing research. I will have a README doc ready tomorrow.

[mindsgn]

hi, @Beasta any update about this pr?

[Beasta]

it looks pretty good! will try to get it installed in a couple hours.

[mindsgn]

did you manage to install it?.

[mindsgn]

@Beasta any luck?.

[mindsgn]

@Beasta please get back to me, when available.

[Beasta]

@mindsgn sorry for the late response. I've begun work on this. Some quick questions i've already run into -

• s4 Hostname - does it matter what its changed to ? does it have to be changed at all?

[Beasta]

for the setting static domain_name_servers in the dhcpcd.conf file, it says to use your vpn providers DNS servers for the domain_name_servers setting. I spent a bunch of time looking for those DNS servers at purevpn and couldn't find them. Because this is a purevpn specific write-up, could you include the DNS servers for purevpn?

[Beasta]

on part 2, the tutorial has: wget https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/openvpn/openvpn.zip please modify it to use purevpn.
