Arrangement:
Home network router:
- ISP provided router
- internet provided through cable
- Router on 192.168.0.0/24
- Computers connect to this network via wired or wireless connections
- DNS and DHCP done by router
HOWEVER: This arrangement is problematic.
To protect traffic and privacy:
- First (sub-optimal) step: protect traffic from each client by connecting to VPN, individually, client to server
- Second (better) step: run a local VPN, so that nothing going into or out of those computers can be detected except for those who need to know.
- Connections from internal computer to internal computer: protected by internal network VPN
- Connections from internal computer to external computer: protected by Private Internet Access VPN provider
