## Why setting up AdGuard VPN on your router may be useful

- With AdGuard VPN on your router, neither your VPN provider nor anyone else has access to your internet activity.
- Installing AdGuard VPN on your router secures your entire network, meaning that all devices connected to it are protected.
- You can protect multiple devices, including those that don't normally support VPN software such as PlayStation, Apple TV and other gaming or streaming consoles.
