Open VPN (iOS) while away from router

millewg

Sorry, I am a solid novice but I have been searching for this answers for some time. I have OpenVPN installed and configured on a Linksys wrt3200acm. It is fully functional and working fine. I also have openvpn installed on my iOS devices and it too seems to work fine. My question is how much security do I really get when using openvpn on my iOS devices when I am traveling. Is there documentation available that describes how this type of vpn connection works.

Traffic between your VPN client and VPN server is encrypted, that is all there is to it.

This question is of interest to me as well! I'm always abroad for professional reasons - be it to pick up a stranded traveller, to standardise procedures with a local insurer, or, next time I'm going, to make insurance quotes for several of these flats in Barcelona - so I'd be glad if I can use OpenVPN on my iPhone even when in another country.
