Simple Way of Connecting to Synology NAS ?

[mwhewett 0]

I am trying to configure my Synology DS212j to Torguard and have spent quite a bit of time looking for solutions to no avail.   I basically want to mask my Download Station activity.  This article below describes a very technical approach:

I tried to do this , successfully connected, but am not able to edit the files. I don't have the base knowledge in command line to do this.  There has to be an easier way... So I did some more research and found this:

Looks great but there are no PPTP servers to be found on the TG site Since this is an old entry, I assume PPTP servers don't exist anymore.

Can someone please provide an easy solution to this?  I don't care what protocol is used really.  Whatever works.  Thanks!

I am struggling with getting my newer version of DSM on Synology working with TorGuard VPN. I feel like this used to be easier and you could actually follow their guide.

The article posted here has a broken link for the certificate downloads...can that be corrected please *support*?

Also are there plans to make this a more seamless process with Synology?
