I've heard people do this for being able to have access to the new IPV6 on
their network. It might involve figuring out iptables in linux to forward
the vpn, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a vpn image for the pi
where you just edit a couple files and plug in the details to the vpn
account.

Subject: Raspberry Pi And VPN Connections
Hi!
As other list members may know I have 2 Raspberry Pi machines here, 1 is
used as an Internet Radio Player and the other runs XBMC and is a Media
Center, I'm thinking of buying a third Pi for a specific purpose and would
be interested in any feedback on the project I'm considering.
I have a Denon AVR2113 Surround-Sound receiver and one of its strengths is
its built-in entertainment facilities, that is to say the receiver can
connect to online Radio, Spotify, Sky.Fm, Last.Fm and so on.
The big problem is that the Receiver cannot connect to a lot of Internet
Radio streams from the U.S. these days due to geoblocking and of course
defeating this with a VPN connection is a breeze! on an Android device,
IOS Device, Mac or Windows as VPN connections can be established via the
respective operating systems Network facilities.
So what to do about the Denon? Well I'm thinking along the lines of having
a Raspberry Pi as a sort of VPN gateway for the Denon if you like, meaning
that the Pi accepts data from my main home Network via Wi-Fi, connects to
a VPN server and then outputs data from that server through the built-in
LAN port of the Pi, would this be possible? Would the Raspberry Pi indeed
be powerful enough to do this?
I'd be interested in any comments.
