Download OpenVPN client for PC and browse all day with MTN night data bundle plan

The other time, I gave you how to use OpenVPN to browse all day with MTN night plan on your Android devices and many people were happy about that. Today I am going to be extending this option of using OpenVPN for PC to browse all day with MTN night data plan to those that will like to use it on their system.

If you have been following us here you will know that, not long ago I wrote on how to use MTN simple server to browse all day with the MTN night data plan on PC. Even as I am writing this particular piece now, all the tweaks mentioned above are still working perfectly. But the truth is that with the MTN simple server, you can only use it with Mozilla Firefox browser, and other browsers like Chrome and the rest will not work and again apart from just using it to surf around only on Mozilla Firefox, you will not be able to make use of internet enabled applications on your systems like updating your Anti-Virus and some other downloads.

That is why I now decided to give you another option that will give you all the freedom you need to access the internet with any browser of your choice and use it on any application on your system to connect to the internet once you configure it properly.
