    Virtual Private Network


    Hi,
    Is there a way to determine if I have a VPN installed.
    I did not install one. Yet, I see these switches on:
    Settings > Network and internet > VPN
    Allow VPN connections over metered networks - on
    Allow VPN to connect while Roaming. - on
    I don't see any VPN information in the router.
    Should those switches be off?
    Thanks


    :)

    VPN setup

    A virtual private network (VPN) extends a private network across a public network, such as the Internet. It enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network.
