How to remove a vpn

[Sukeyp]

Teenage son has managed to get around the Broadshield that I switched on in an effort to curb his game playing whilst studying for A levels.  He has uploaded a VPN to give him access to all games.  This has slowed down our service.  How do I get rid of it?

VPNs can be accessed via a router configuration, a browser extension or via an app, each one has a different removal method

Why can you not ask your son to remove it?

HI 

thank you for your response.  He is away at the moment and our system has slowed down

Hi Annie

does this mean he is the only one capable of removing the VPN

[Annie+UK]

Without knowing what method of VPN then it makes it very difficult to advise

Check your routers settings to see if a VPN is set there, as this is the only way I can think that it would slow everything down, a VPN app will usually only affect the device it is installed on

Thank you so much for this.  Just going over to check routers now

Thanks again

Note that there isn't any model of Sky Hub which can itself host a VPN endpoint.
