Off Topic Installing a VPN on a smart TV

Anyone know how? obviously the tv is smarter than me

 

App store and search for the VPN provider. What is your TV running ? Android, Google, Fire etc ?

I just bought a new vpn yday for my set up and it's been class

 

and there lies the problem, I dont know

 

What tv is it. Brand and model ?

 

LG whatever the hell that is

 

Probably out of luck with a direct vpn all download. LG web OS usually don't allow VPN app direct downloads. Your best bet would be be download a VPN that allows VPN at router or Smart DNS. Bit more of a clart on. Or use a fire cub or stick for your service and get the VPN on that device.

 

thank you, the annoying thing is I couldnt see all of the match, but just checked and I can watch sky with the poxy golf

 

What is this strange tongue he speaketh?
You may as well have said that in Swahili for what I understand of it !

 

I've not tested this, but method 3 on this video seems most straightforward and might be worth a try if your PC/laptop (I assume phone too) allows it. Basically have the vpn on and activated on your device and then set it up as a mobile hotspot and then connect your tv to the hotspot.

There are other videos showing how to get into the developer options on LG TVs to enable installing 'unknown' apps if you look around on youtube, which in theory would allow you to install a vpn on your tv, but it's more of a **** on.

 

Good shout, still not ideal like.

It's why I run my stuff through a Amazon fire cube. Apps are not bother for that. Just turn my VPN on before I use my service.

 

Remember the ‘Good old days’ when all we had was BBC1, BBC2, ITV, and Channel 4 to choose from?

 

Aye. It was ****e

 

Can anyone recommend a good Iptv service? I’m sick of paying Sky £100 pm then Netflix, Prime and Disney on top of that.
I’ve just ordered a new Firestick

 

Sack the stick off and get a fire cube. Makes a big difference.

 

I have a stick but mainly it is because I am in a camp for 2 weeks so it travels with me.
Did have a cube and they are very good

 

I use a one called Blade tv which is good but there are loads of different ones with different price ranges think mine is 70 quid a year. I only really use it for the football as still use cinema hd for most of my movies and tv which is free and very good.
I use Nord vpn think that is about 100 quid and am signed up to real debrid as well which is about 36 euro for 3 month but well worth it.

 

We've got a service that has pretty much all of the Netflix, prime and Disney stuff on it and all the sports, movies you could wish for. £40 a year and had one issue in about four years that was rectified within the hour.

Gone are the days of paying sky silly money for what they want to show you.

 

I've used a stick for years. What's the difference/advantages with a cube?

 

What's that mate?

 

Same here - I've got the fire stick 4k max and it works pretty well with my provider - been using them for about 4 years now - £70 a year but happy to pay extra.

The main issue is the person holding the remote who didnt realise the game kicked off at 12:30 on saturday instead of 3pm - went to check the teams at 2:20 and realised 86 minutes had gone!
