How to use VPN on Smart TV?

[@SurfsharkAcademy]

Thanks for watching! Surfshark now has a native app on Apple TV here's a full video about it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fananJx-fdp3gLcsi=fW_H-S2ayJAvIMnO

[@PL-ev2mw]

Is this really a strong commercial decision considering the number of Apple tv’s in the marketplace compared to the number of Samsung tv’s that SS isn’t considering providing an app for?

[@SurfsharkAcademy]

@@PL-ev2mw Our goal is to bring Surfshark everywhere. Last year in 2023 Apple tvOS 17 was released which brought with it native VPN support for Apple TVs. Currently Surfshark is working on an app for Apple TV which is coming soon. If Samsung or any other TV manufacturer updates its OS to support VPNs we'll be sure to bring Surfshark there as well

[@Mr_sponge330]

Could you please work on a version of web os because our router doesn't support vpn and my pc is only on ethernet

[@abdulrehmankhan8516]

Still Surfshark not Available on LG Smart TVS web OS ???

[@aryasharma197]

Its so much hassle. Why don't you guys make an app for LG and Samsung? These days its not that expensive to get an app made. BTW I am using an LG TV and now thinking of buying a Firestick. Also I would have happily paid a dollar for the app if the app was paid too, just saying

[@aryasharma197]

@@SurfsharkAcademy and that can set you apart from the competition, that's how I see it and I don't think you need any other reason other than this

[@salvador.garcia]

@@SurfsharkAcademy please make an app to Samsung, your tutorial doesn't works to change locations. I'm seriously thinking of not renewing my subscription with you because of that problem, it's too much trouble for me.

[@tadasp1315]

Make fucking app for Samsung 🤦‍♂️

[@YT_NIKIPLAYS7077]

Yeah also they should make an app for Apple TV because they have nord vpn and express vpn and so many others it’s just so annoying and bad for their stocks company, people might as well just buy a fire stick or something

[@dailyshenanigans4883]

​@@YT_NIKIPLAYS7077SurfShark isn't hiding your location on Google. Just by asking Google, "what's my current location?" It will clearly show a map of where you really are, not the location that has been chosen on the Surfshark app. The VPN is totally useless! It's not hiding anyone's IP address or current location. It's a scam!!! Everyone should be reporting that VPN company to ScamAdviser!!!

A few things here....instructions are for too fast. Please slow down. You Win 11 must be different to mine does NOT have Advanced Windiws settings so that is where I stopped. Can you re-edit this video ensuring 5:55 any updates to Win 11 are included Thanks

[@nikkifinn1383]

For those of us who are a little less savvy this is an exceptional posting. Thank you!! I only hope I can figure out how to use an old PC as a hotspot (prefer to repurpose older or unused equipment.) I have been wary of signing up with you as i didn't' know anything at all but this has certainly given me the courage to try.

[@midwestblondie]

Try typing into the Google search bar WHAT'S MY CURRENT LOCATION? And then see what comes up. I bet it shows your real location and not the area that you've set on your Surf Shark app. They are liars and DON'T HIDE YOUR LOCATION!

[@justanotheryoutuber8826]

Surfshark is nothing but a scam. Just ask Google "what's my IP address?" And it shows your real IP location. THE SURF SHARK SERVICE DOES NOT HIDE ANYTHING! THEY ARE STEALING YOUR MONEY FOLKS!!

Im still new to all this computer talk ive seen so many videos on vpn settings let me tell my head spins like the exorcist like a post i read on a earlier post i fill a little more positive trying again really good video thanks for the help..

I cannot see the TAP- surfshark adaptor in the network connection section in windows 11. But I can connect to surf shark using the app in windows 11. What went wrong? How can I make the adaptor reappear in the network connection/ adaptor screen?

Can you not use Ethernet cable on laptop method?

[@timtranslates]

Using the hotspot method, I get "No Internet Connection". It used to work, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I tried renaming the hotspot and reconnecting, but still not luck. Makes no difference whether I use my phone or the TV. Nothing gets sent to the hotspot.

[@Yuurrr]

If I use the router method, will devices connected to the router via LAN (not via wifi) also be connected to the VPN? Thanks!

[@Filipp0vAP1999]

It's depends on the router, but usually it is. Some routers can choose devices that will use VPN.

[@Yuurrr]

@@Filipp0vAP1999 Thanks! Is there something specific too look for a router which can do this? How do I know which router can and which can't do this?

Great tutorial! 👍🏼 Wouldn't it be possible though to use a Google Chromecast device instead of the Xiaomi Mi box or the Nvidia Shield? The Chromecast also runs on Android OS...

it actually misses the HOW TO SET UP THE SMART DNS on a Samsung TV. great, i'll figure it out by myself.

[@PL-ev2mw]

Great! My Samsung 4K UHD tv os does not support SurfShark! My ISP does not allow a VPN to be installed on their router. Come on SS get your act together on the app front, I mean Samsung isn’t a bit part player in the smart tv market, is it?

[@SurfsharkAcademy]

We'd love to bring the Surfshark app on all TVs, sadly the operating system in TyzenOS used by Samsung TVs doesn't support VPN connectivity. For the easiest VPN setup on TVs we suggest using an external device where a VPN can be installed on like Android TV Box, Google TV or Amazon Fire TV Stick

[@emamackeviciute5499]

I did step by step hot spot, and when i try to connect my tv its connects but without internet by some reason

Si ud hace click en la configuracion del video (engranaje), podra reducir la velocidad del video si lo necesita - pero lo mas importante en su caso, activar los subtitulos con la opcion de traduccion automatica al idioma de su preferencia. Eso si, no sera una traduccion perfecta pues es robotica, pero quizas le sea de mucha utilidad.

is LG tv one of Android TVs?

What other way can I do it?

J'utilise le Fire TV Stick, ça fonctionne impeccable 👍

[@jonnymin.speranza6854]

can i use surfshark for smart tv that's not android? I've to change dns for use it?

[@SurfsharkAcademy]

You can use other TVs but you would have to use either the router method or Windows PC to share the VPN connection to that TV. For older TVs that aren't running Android I would recommend plugging in an external media device like an Amazon Fire TV stick or Google Chromecast and setup the VPN on that device via Surfshark app, it's way easier

Issue i have on my Android TV using the app with Wireguard, it's slow as hell. Router connected with Wireguard 400Mbps, turn it off on router and enable it on my TV, 45Mbps, same goes on my new Chromecast 45Mbps. I recently got firmware upgrade on my router with VPN Fusion and Wireguard, but i still need different locations sometimes on different devices and the speeds are not 4k compliant.

[@521guera]

so surfshark didn't install a TAP adapter so i'm kind of stuck

[@Vagen_d]

Can the method 2 be accomplished with a PC with no wifi but is wired to my router?

[@SurfsharkAcademy]

It would work if it had two ethernet ports (one wired to router other wired to TV) you can have two if you have a network card attached

[@Vagen_d]

@@SurfsharkAcademy hmmmm I have two tvs that I need to hook up. I don’t want to do the router method because I frequently change my Surfshark location and occasionally need to disconnect my vpn and go local. I’ll have to find a different way around this roadblock. Thanks!

I subscribed to surfshark on my sony android TV but after i connect to it, peacock says ...'accessing peacock through vpn is not allowed'. What to do in this case?

go into settings, and then Bypass. have the Peacock app bypass the VPN.

[@James-e4h1f]

If you connect a router to the VPN (say London) as you did, it there is a TV program that then requires a location to be based in USA, do you have to change that original setting? If the router is set to UK and a computer needs a Australia based location, and another TV needs Germany, and another Laptop needs??, you know where I am going with this, can it be done?
