August 2023 Update


As summer gradually bids farewell (at least in Sweden), here at Encrouter we have been working diligently to enhance your experience with the Encrouter Smart VPN router, one of the world's first fully integrated VPN routers.

We're excited to announce the latest round of updates to both the router and the app, bringing you a range of new features and improvements to enhance your online security and browsing experience even more.

We hope you will enjoy these changes, and as always, we're happy to hear your feedback on new releases – so feel free to drop us a line if you have any questions, comments or suggestions for future improvements at [email protected].

1. Device Groups for Streamlined Management

In response to popular feedback, we've introduced Device Groups to the Encrouter Smart VPN router. Now you can organize and manage all of your household smart devices more efficiently, tailoring your VPN settings to different groups of devices. This means greater control and customization over your online security.

2. Expanded VPN Possibilities with Multiple VPNs

Diversify your online experience with the introduction of Multiple VPNs. Want to watch a game in England while your family members indulge in Spanish TV in the other room? Well, now you can. Encrouter has got you covered with the possiblity to set up and manage multiple VPN connections simultaneously. This enhancement grants you the flexibility to optimize your browsing for different purposes while keeping your data secure.

3. Stay Informed with Push Notifications

4. Enhanced Stability and Performance

We've dedicated this update to not only introducing new features but also enhancing the overall stability and performance of Encrouter. We've addressed various bugs and fine-tuned the user experience to ensure that your VPN router operates seamlessly.

5. Empowering Your Network with More

In addition to the headline features, our August update is packed with various other enhancements that contribute to a superior online experience. From refining how DNS and multiple WireGuard interfaces coexist to introducing capabilities like fwmark for devices in other groups, we've meticulously worked on every aspect to bring you a comprehensive and secure networking solution.

Encrouter continues to be your partner in safeguarding your online privacy. As always, your feedback plays a crucial role in shaping our updates, and we're excited to see how these new features will empower your experience with our product. Stay tuned for more exciting updates on the horizon – like the introduction of Home Location that's coming up next month.

What is Home Location?

The next big feature that Encrouter team is working on is Home Location. This upcoming feature will allow you to effortlessly share your internet connection with individuals around the world. Imagine this: if you and a friend have routers in different countries, you can both appear online as if you were accessing the internet from the same location. This functionality enables you to enjoy services like Netflix as if you were living in the same household, hassle free.
