This tutorial explains how to connect your Tomato firmware router to LimeVPN using the L2TP protocol.

Following changes have to be made in the web configuration panel of your router. You can access it by visiting the local IP of your router from your web browser. 

Please note, that L2TP alone does not encrypt your traffic, it only reroutes you through one of our servers. Please use it at your own risk. This does not apply to L2TP/IPsec.

To use L2TP protocol on your Tomato router follow these steps:

1. Go to Basic – > Network

2. Fill in these fields:

Type: L2TP
Wireless client mode: Disabled
Username: Your LimeVPN username
Password: Your LimeVPN password
L2TP Server: You can find our server addresses hereUse DHCP: Check
DNS 1: 8.8.8.8
DNS 2: 8.8.4.4
Connect Mode: Keep Alive
Radial Interval: 30
MTU: Default

3. Click on Save. 

You may have to reboot the router for the changes to be applied.
