Chromebook "Set up virtual private networks (VPNs)": yeah, right!

https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1282338?hl=en

You can use some types of VPNs on your Chromebook without installing any software. For other types, you can install VPN apps ...


Your Chromebook has built-in support for these VPNs:
  • L2TP over IPsec with PSK
  • L2TP over IPsec with certificate-based authentication
  • OpenVPN
Note: I recently dumped OpenVPN at privatetunnel.com because it couldn't support my Chromebook.

There's way more junk in the article. Read it for yourself.

Was this article helpful? No!

My comment:

Are you kidding? Build the damn VPN into your OS. Who the heck knows what you're talking about? Chromebooks are supposed to be simple. Google should protect us without expecting us to follow esoteric instructions like monkeys.
