Connection Drops
08/31/2022

The idea of offering a free vpn through your router is fantastic but I noticed the connection drops and I have to reconnect over and over which makes it less usable. I don’t think this is a hard fix as other vpns are already doing such.

Broken (Update)

I’ve been checking back on the app every few weeks to see when this issue would get resolved. You can see my original review titled “Broken” from about a month ago for more details on that. But I just checked it again right now and it’s finally working and my device now shows up as available. Clicked on my router and it finally works! What’s odd though is I didn’t see any updates for this app, and I haven’t pushed through any firmware updates for my router, and I don’t think I have my router set to automatically update either so how did this just start working? They changed something somewhere without our knowledge? Anyways.. I have to check my router version later to confirm about the auto update being off so who knows. Only thing I know I did recently was accept some terms for trend micro to grab my data when I wanted to use QOS but don’t think that would of done anything for this... very odd but hey I’m just glad it’s finally working!

Issues with cellular data
Sep 5

When activated my cellular data was severely affected. The cellular connection . The phone kept showing full bars and calls could be made. It even said 5G but there was no internet. I troubleshooted with the phone company and they could not resolve it. I planned on taking the phone to Apple but decided to do a full reset first. After the reset, the issue persisted so I then checked the VPN settings. I found Instaguard’s VPN intermittently trying to connect. I decided to turn it completely off and to remove it and my internet worked again. I think that if I want to remotely manage my network, I’ll stick to port forwarding.

Overall, a good easy VPN solution

If not wanting to set up a dedicated VPN solution Instant Guard is fairly decent. Easy to set up on an ASUS router with it baked in. Easy configuration of connection and simple clean application interface. Once set up the VPN toggle in settings is enabled as it should be. Key thing missing is the Shortcuts widget to allow for Home Screen One touch enabling and disabling of VPN or automation capabilities.
