Hi guys. My end goal here is to set up a VPN at home that I can access on the road (coffee shops, hotel, etc...) to log into my work's website and do work.
If I use a VPN router, will I also need a computer that is always on in order to use the VPN, or will the VPN router take care of everything (all inclusive/self-contained)?
Also, I will be using Brighthouse's 90 Mbps down / 10 Mbps up. Will the 10 upload be fast enough? Say, would I be able to effortlessly stream YouTube videos (as just a point of reference)?
And say I set the VPN up in Jacksonville, Fl, if I travel to California, will my speeds be significantly slowed because of the distance?
Thank you in advance for any and all help. Greatly, greatly appreciated. If I can get this working, it will literally change my life. Being able to work on the road is such a game changer.
PS I have looked into VPN services and they are basically out, as the people running the services could technically have access to my work and my company would very likely say no just on those grounds. But if I have my own VPN and I access via my own internet connection (whilst on the road) it is almost certain to work.
