Yes, you can use a VPN on gaming consoles, but most consoles don’t support native VPN apps. Here’s how to set it up:

• Router setup – Configure a VPN on your router so your console automatically uses the VPN connection.
• VPN-enabled device sharing – Share a VPN connection from your PC or laptop to your console via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.

Many smart TV apps work with VPNs, though not all TVs support native VPN apps. You can still use a VPN in several ways:

1. Native VPN apps – Some smart TVs, especially Android TVs, allow you to install VPN apps directly.
2. Router setup – Configure a VPN on your router so all devices, including your TV, are protected.
3. Screen mirroring or casting – Use a device with the VPN enabled to cast content to your TV.
