This method involves a bit more fiddling with the settings, but it allows you to share your PC’s VPN connection with the Xbox. You’ll need an ethernet cable to proceed!

Installing a VPN on a router is certainly not the easiest way to get Xbox VPN. However, if you do it, you’ll have the added bonus of having secured every device that connects to the Internet via your router! Here’s how it’s done.
As we mentioned before, not only your Xbox but every other device that uses the router will now be protected by the VPN! And as you know, VPN use comes with many benefits.
We’ve all been burnt by region-locked games. Sadly, this practice exists in other areas as well, like streaming.
That is unless you get a VPN which allows you to appear to be connecting from the country where the content is available! Do you want Japanese Netflix or the best of Crunchyroll? VPN can deliver that!
Your ISP knows everything you do online. While this has troubling implications for your privacy, it also means that the ISP can slow down your connection when you’re gaming, streaming, or sharing files.
But if you’re running a VPN, they can’t see anything, and what they can’t see, they can’t throttle!
Cursing you out via messages is the only recourse for most you own online. But what about hacking, DDoS attacks, and using your IP to get your address for SWATing?
All of those things are addressed by having a VPN hide your IP and protect your digital identity online.
Yes. VPN use is legal in almost every country in the world. It’s using VPN for illegal activities – like pirating copyrighted material – that isn’t.
A free VPN is not recommended under any circumstances. Research into free Android VPNs has demonstrated that:
So with free VPNs, you are not only not getting the benefits of VPNs, you are actually exposing yourself online even more.
But even if they were secure, free VPNs couldn’t hold a candle to the speed and accessibility of a paid VPN. Free ones usually have speed caps and offer only a few servers. Paid VPNs do not; in fact, having a wide variety of servers helps not only in improving speed but also in overcoming streaming service attempts to ban VPN IPs.
There will be a bit of slowdown when using any VPN connection. Some of it is entirely out of your hands, as some bandwidth is used for VPN encryption needs.
However, a big part of VPN connection speed depends on the proximity of the server you’re connecting to. If the server is closer to you geographically, the slowdown will be negligible.
