vpn Joining two networks with a VPN

[Slugsie]

I'd like to set up a VPN so that my daughter can access my NAS from her home (also handy so I can access it whilst out and about), but I've no idea how to go about doing this,

 

My home router is a BT Home Hub 5, which has no VPN capability built in. But I can obviously open up ports on it as required.

My NAS is an EonNas Pro 810.

All PCs (mine and daughters) are Windows 10.

I have a spare Raspberry Pi B doing nothing, so that could be setup as a dedicated device if needs be.

 

So can anyone help, or point me to an easy to follow guide?

 

TIA

Look at Unifi equipment, lots of info on youtube on how to setup 2 locations via vpn.

This seems like a decent guide for setting up a Rasberry Pi as a VPN server although I have no idea if it works with your Rasberry Pi B: https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-vpn-server/.

Unless I'm missing something that involves buying expensive equipment. I should've mentioned that any solution needs to be as inexpensive as possible.

Looks like a good solution, but they recommend a Pi 2 or 3. I'll read up on it and decide on a Pi upgrade.

If your ISP uses a dynamic IP you might also want to setup dynamic DNS for easier connection. I've used No-IP for this for many years: https://www.noip.com/.
