Use a Raspberry Pi as a Tor/VPN Router for Anonymous Browsing


We've shown you how to use a Raspberry Pi as both a Tor proxy and a personal VPN, but Make shows off how to do both in one unit for truly anonymous browsing everywhere.

The build here uses two Wi-Fi adapters to get the job done. Once it's complete, you'll have a passive VPN connection that you'll hardly even notice is there. You'll also have Tor installed, so you can flip over to that connection with just a couple of clicks. It's a pretty simple setup all things considered, and it'll act as a nice bridge between your standard router for those times when you want to browse anonymously or get around any location-specific blocks.
