If you purchase a router with 'No Subscription /w Non-Functional Configuration (Reset Required)' option selected your router will probably be configured with a VPN configuration that enables users to connect to PenguinVPN. However since no VPN subscription is activated the router does 'not work'. To resolve this follow the instructions below:
To reset the router to a default non-VPN configuration and have the router work normally you will need to login to the router at https://192.168.3.1/ using the default user name and password. For this router (as it was configured to be used with PenguinVPN service) you can login as user root with password 'none'. Note: none does not mean you enter no password. It literally means type in the word 'none' without the quotes around it. Once you have logged in go to System > Backup / Flash Firmware and click the 'Perform reset' button. After 30 seconds or so power off the router by unpluging the power on the router and plugging it back in. After a minute or two the router will be booted normally and you can access it via https://192.168.10.1 using the documentation included with the router. ie follow the directions on page 1 of the intro packet found here : https://www.thinkpenguin.com/files/intro-packet.pdf
------ another optional way to perform a reset without logging into the router (may be more tricky to perform this way) -------
Another way to reset the TPE-R1100 Mini VPN Wireless Router: Connect power to Mini VPN Router, wait for lights to blink, then hold reset button down for 10 seconds. This should reset the device and no password / VPN configuration will exist on reboot.
The address that the router should be after reset is https://192.168.10.1/ and not https://192.168.10.3.1/
