OK, it's easy but I don't like it. 

On an Asus router with Merlin firmware, make sure you have your free
ASUS DDNS set, then go to Advanced Settings - VPN - VPN Server - create
username and password - click plus - click apply.

Use Android OpenVPN Connect client to connect to your home network DDNS
address and you can from e.g. a 4G mobile network access your home
network using home network internal IP addresses.

Problem is, this won't, at least with default settings, let you use my
VPN provider www.privateinternetaccess.com .opvn file generator to
connnect the router as a VPN client to PIA at the same time (this being
another usage of the term VPN, in this case the router being a PIA
client and PIA thus providing encryption/unblocking/geolocation etc. for
all traffic out of router to ISP).

Read a thousand posts, contacted PIA and ASUS support (both useless of
course), I know it's just a simple matter of a conflicting setting or
two and the router will be able to be a VPN server (for remote access to
home network) and VPN client (for PIA) at the same time. Any tips
appreciated. 

Wiki should be updated with instructions on how to do this, what with
the strong warnings to avoid LMS port forwarding and nothing on how/what
kind of VPN to use.
