How to add VPN to your TV


Streaming video on a VPN? You don't just have to watch on your laptop or phone. Here's how to get that video to your TV.

For decades, the legacy Hollywood studios have made money by slicing and dicing the licenses to their ever-growing vaults of movies and TV shows to as many channels and streamers as possible in as many countries and territories as you can count. But if you want a whole-house approach — in which you could, for instance, watch UK Netflix on every device on your home network — you’ll want to investigate accessing the VPN at the router level. Even then, you’ll need an expert user in the household who knows how to engage and disengage the VPN and customize its settings, as leaving it turned on all the time can interfere with non-streaming activities, including simple things like shopping online.
