Hi,
I'm completely new to all of this. At my school they block some sites, and I would like to be able to set up a server on my home network that I can connect my iPhone (running iOS 9) to, in order to bypass this (ie I want to send all traffic from my school's wifi connection through my home network, if that's the correct way of describing it).
My home PC can be left on during the day, and is a Windows 10 desktop connected to a Virgin Media SuperHub 2ac router via Ethernet.
Would anyone be able to provide me with a basic/step by step guide of how to achieve this?

Access Server is designed to run on Linux OS only, so a Windows machine won't do it.
Of course, you can run virtualization software, and then it will run, but it may be problematic with network settings. It will most likely be NATted internally instead of being bridged to your network, and you'll have to set up port forwards and such. I guess it can work but it's some work.
And then there's the problem of the firewalls in the school network. What if they block this type of traffic?
