Do you own a RAX 45, maybe a RAX120. I've done the research, the troubleshooting, and I got advice for anyone wanting to fake that they're at their home IP.
First off you gotta find a way to get that sweet user/pass if your ISP does PPPoE. If you can't, well, shit brah. Maybe there's another way to get that working for ya, perhaps some mac address cloning, either way, the best way to get this working is to make your netgear the main router and your ISP GPON should just be a layer 2 switch.
This guide assumes you're not a complete moron or have some sort of technical training, maybe you're a student and you want to "try it out" And with that said, your Netgear router must be in router mode, I won't tell you where to do that, look it up or something.
This first image shows you the menu, you want to hit advanced or you'll get nowhere to be honest.
This should be your first stop if your provider has a VLAN for internet data, good ol' Mexican telecom is 881. Maybe your isp has IPTV (which is probably dead due to netflix and other streaming shit) you indicate it here and select a port on your router to dish out that IPTV.
Next stop is Setup so you can get to the internet setup.
If you're just going to clone a mac address, forget about logins, but if you're gonna do some PPPoE dialing, this is the preferred method, it's pretty self explanatory, user/password type stuff. Wan aggregation if you got more than 1 WAN, 5G Ethernet if your ISPs GPON supports it, man if you're going that fast and you came here for pointers, I don't get it.
Like I said, cloning a mac, or using another should be indicated here.
Next stop is dynamic dns, did I mention this is a VPN guide, you probably forgot, for some reason netgear won't let you activate the vpn thing if you don't get some dns alias working. You might even have a fixed IP, it still won't work, I suggest you get their free no-ip service. It's good for a single IP. Excellent if you're cheap like I was with all my former girlfriends.
Are we there yet? You enable the vpn service by clicking on that box over there. And here comes the best part, the space oddity. The windows config is horseshit, don't download it, MAC OS X, someone tell me if it works I don't own an overpriced BSD server pretending to be a desktop. Smartphone works on mobile AND on fucking winblowz, probably on Linux too. You get a single file with both keys, no fuzz, no hazzle, just download OpenVPN and import that sucker.
Last but not least, set your controls to auto, there are reasons to choose all sites or home network only, mainly if you don't trust other people using your own vpn and you want to limit their ability to spoof your IP, but if you trust them/you, auto is fine.
This last and obscure config file will be available after you correctly import your config file on Openvpn, remember that auto thing? You can toggle it client side with a line of code I commented with #, redirect-gateway will enable you to impersonate that IP you want to surf as. For mobile devices, I suggest creating 2 config files, one with and one without that line of code.
That's it, you did it, you made a VPN server with a netgear device.
No one will read this, and I'm okay with it.
