How to set up IPHush on GL.iNet
1 · Before you start
- Save a backup of the router’s settings
SYSTEM → Backup / Restore → Export configuration
- Keep a way back in
Keep a cable to the router and its admin password at hand while you change it.
2 · Your file
- Make the file for your router
Sign in at iphush.com/app, open Devices, add a Router and choose GL.iNet. The app makes IPHush.conf for your router and shows this guide with your own values filled in.
3 · Add the tunnel
- Upload the file
VPN → WireGuard Client → Add a new group (or use one) → Upload configuration file → IPHush.conf
The file has no DNS line. If the import refuses it without one, add the line DNS = 10.96.0.1 under [Interface] and import it again.
- Start the connection
VPN → VPN Dashboard → WireGuard Client → IPHush → Start
- See the handshake
VPN Dashboard shows IPHush as connected, with a recent handshake.
4 · Choose who uses it
One device
Only the devices you choose use IPHush; the others keep your normal connection.
- Policy by device
- DNS for that device
- IPv6: no leak
The whole network
Every device on the network uses IPHush. The order matters: the router must reach the IPHush server outside the tunnel before the default route moves into it.
- Keep the IPHush server on your normal connection
- Default route through IPHush · VPN → VPN Dashboard → Options (proxy mode) → Global proxy
- DNS through IPHush · NETWORK → DNS → Manual DNS → 10.96.0.1
- IPv6: no leak · NETWORK → IPv6 → Disable
- Optional kill switch · VPN → VPN Dashboard → Options → Block non-VPN traffic
5 · Check it works
- The tunnel is up
VPN Dashboard shows IPHush as connected, with a recent handshake.
- Check from a device
On a device that should use IPHush, open https://whoami.iphush.com/ in a browser. It must show "iphush": true and an IPHush address. A device outside the option you chose shows false: that is expected.
GL.iNet VPN: questions
Which GL.iNet firmware works with IPHush?
Firmware 4.x.
Can the whole home go through IPHush on GL.iNet?
Every device on the network uses IPHush. The order matters: the router must reach the IPHush server outside the tunnel before the default route moves into it.
Is there a kill switch on GL.iNet?
Your choice: with it, clients have no internet while IPHush is down.
Which plan includes a router?
Family and Pro each include 1 router, and the router counts as one connection: every device behind it is protected. On Pro it leaves from your dedicated IP.
Has IPHush tested these steps on GL.iNet?
The steps follow the vendor’s current documentation; we have not yet run them on this router in our lab, and the guide in your account says so. Menu names can differ slightly between firmware versions.
