Use VPN to Access Your Internet Service at
Home
When you're away from home and you access the Internet, you usually use a local Internet
service provider. For example, at a coffee shop you might be given a code that lets you
use the coffee shop's Internet service account to surf the web.
Nighthawk lets you use a VPN connection to access your own Internet service when
you're away from home. You might want to do this if you travel to a geographic location
that doesn't support all the Internet services that you use at home. For example, your
Netflix account might work at home but not in a different country.
