Which VPN is compatible with LG TV?
I have a LG tv that I have been using to stream video from Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and HBO Go.
I am just curious what VPN works well with this tv? Would it be possible to run the VPN on my laptop and then stream video through my LG tv? Yes. A VPN can work on your computer, and you can then use it from your phone to connect to the VPN. This is called a "remote access VPN". It is common to connect to a remote access VPN using an app on your phone.
So you can download the VPN app on your computer (eg PPTP) then use the VPN client on your phone to access the VPN? This is how my friend's Samsung TV connects to his PPTP VPN. He has a laptop and a phone connected to the TV. I was thinking of doing the same, but wondering if I should use a different VPN protocol instead of PPTP.
So you can download the VPN app on your computer (eg PPTP) then use the VPN client on your phone to access the VPN? PPTP is the best VPN protocol to use if you are not using a remote access VPN. If you want to use a remote access VPN protocol, you can use OpenVPN or L2TP/IPSec.
It is not uncommon to connect to a remote access VPN using an app on your phone. Many VPN services like Private Internet Access have apps for iOS and Android. I have used both Private Internet Access and NordVPN and both have worked well.
I've been looking into this. I have an LG tb 55LM940, and I was wondering if it is possible to connect my computer to it via VPN. I know that I can connect to the tv over wifi using a remote access VPN, but I am wondering if it is possible to do the opposite.
Can VPN be installed on smart TV?
My wife and I both own an LG Smart TV that we got at Costco.
We both use this TV for watching movies, browsing the web, and other things that a smart TV is supposed to do. Unfortunately, it is a terrible set-top box. It is slow and I can never get the audio to work. I think it may be a driver issue.
Anyway, I am trying to figure out if it is possible to use a VPN on this TV to make it a more useful device. I know that smart TVs are becoming increasingly popular and I just wonder if there is a way to make this TV a little more useful. Is it possible?
Thanks for the help. P. I am hoping to use it for streaming Netflix and Amazon Prime videos.
I don't know if you can install a VPN on the TV. I was going to suggest installing Kodi on it. You could then install a VPN server on the computer, connect to it using your TV's WiFi, and stream all of your content through the VPN. I know it's a bit of a hassle, but it's not too bad.
Thanks for the reply. I think I will go with that option. I will install Kodi on my computer, connect to it using the TV's WiFi, and use a VPN to connect to the internet.
You cannot connect to the Internet using the TV's WiFi.e. That's what the TV is supposed to do. The TV is not connected to the Internet. You can connect to the Internet using a cable/DSL modem or other devices that have WiFi.
Sorry, but you cannot. The only way to connect to the internet from the tv is to have a wired connection.
You're wrong. There are a number of ways to connect to the internet wirelessly without having a wired connection.
What ways?
