My router offers a VPN service out of the box, so I connect there any time I'm in an untrusted wifi. Super handy when travelling with limited roaming-data.

Do you mean a VPN Service hosted on your router?

Mine also, but I don't enable that because then that it's counted as incoming and outgoing traffic by my internet provider and discounted from my monthly quote.

Yeah, exactly. I'm in the lucky situation to have uncapped giga up/down so this works fine for me.
