<p>This guide will show you how to get up and running with VPN on Android 7.0 Nougat using the L2TP/IPSec protocol. For more about the L2TP/IPsec technology you can read this <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layer_2_Tunneling_Protocol">Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol wikipedia article</a>. </p>
<p>L2TP is a great option for creating a VPN because Android has built-in support for it automatically, which means you don't need to install anything from the Play store. </p>
<h2>Steps for Setup VPN on Android L2TP/IPSec (7.0 Nougat)</h2>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Purchase a VPN account.<br>
Get an account at the superb VPN provider <a href="https://vpn.ac/aff.php?aff=933">VPN.ac</a> and start enjoying the peace of mind that your internet privacy is protected.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Login and navigate to your VPN Service details.<br>
The username and password for your VPN connection are different than your account login. Create these VPN credentials on the <a href="https://vpn.ac/clientarea.php?action=products&aff=933">VPN username and password management</a> page after you login. You will need to click the <strong>'View Details'</strong> button to navigate to the password entry screen.

</li>
<li>
<p>Find your VPN username create your VPN password.<br>
Your VPN username will automatically be created for you and displayed right above your password entry field. Enter your desired password in both of the password fields and click 'Save Changes'. Store your username and password in a secure location, we recommend <a href="https://pwsafe.org/">Password Safe</a>, you will need these credentials when you setup your VPN connection.
<img alt="Enter Password" class="img-responsive" src="/img/blog/setup-vpn-windows-10-l2tp-ipsec/setpassword.png" title="Enter Password"></p>
</li>
<li>

If your device does not have an Apps icon on the home screen, you can get to the settings by swiping down from the top notification bar with two fingers. Press the gear icon you will be shown your devices settings, you can skip to Step 6.<br>

</li>
<li>
<p>Scroll down and set the field <em>'Username'</em> to your VPN username from step 2, something like <strong>vpn995XXXXX</strong>.

</li>
<li>
<p>Connect to your new VPN connection.
Under the <strong>'BASIC VPN'</strong> section, you should now see a new VPN connection with the name you provided in step 10. Press this to connect. To get to this connection screen in the future, you can follow these same steps starting at step 4.
<img alt="VPN Name Connect" class="img-responsive" src="/img/blog/setup-vpn-android-l2tp-ipsec/vpn_name.png" title="VPN Name Connect"> </p>
</li>
<li>

<img alt="VPN Connect" class="img-responsive" src="/img/blog/setup-vpn-android-l2tp-ipsec/vpn_connect.png" title="VPN Connect"> </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Congratulations! You have now shielded your internet privacy. Anything you connect to on the internet will now be encrypted and routed through this VPN connection. This protects against eavesdroppers and network monitors from spying on your activity. In your notification bar you should see an icon with a key to indicate you are connected.<br>
<img alt="VPN Connect" class="img-responsive" src="/img/blog/setup-vpn-android-l2tp-ipsec/vpn_connected.png" title="VPN Connect"> </p>
