I use Kodi to stream. After I get a VPN do I need to uninstall my apps such as Kodi and then reinstall the apps after I get my VPN?

I recently swapped isp from BT to virgin. Had an account with Ip vanish worked fine with bt, no issues. Found as soon as swapped to virgin had loads of issues with Ip vanish. Virgin seem to be blocking alot of their servers, I couldn't even use wireguard. I now have a Vpn elsewhere which isnt one of the big boys

You are 100% correct Chris. Even if someone uses only legal apps and does nothing illegal online and never logs on to a foreign server a VPN can serve many useful functions such as protecting your connection when you are using a public hotspot. Or it can stop you from being tracked online.

I have never used a VPN. Been using firesticks since the first generation. Hundreds of my fellow firestick users do not use a VPN. The reason people sometimes get locked apps or buffering comes from the wifi connection they are using. Once the wifi is up to speed, problem fades. So the next time you go on vacation, check your wifi connection if you experience problems. The Idea that people need VPN is a scare tactic used to influence people to obtain VPN. Talk about this now.

This has only started happening since my mate side loaded 3 apps on my Firestick he said it was safe and can’t be affecting my Netflix as I use my paid account for Netflix

Hi Doc, thanks for your great feedback regarding a V P N….. I use Express V P N and have done for a number of years as I live in Spain so I find it is necessary to use one….. Just recently a few weeks ago I did a software update on my 4K Fire stick since then ITV X will not open, I have tried everything possible to no avail, I have even done a factory reset that didn’t work either. I have tried deleting cache, and also deleting the ITV X app and reinstalling it that didn’t work either… I tried turning off the power source for 3 minutes, no success there…..Have you any ideas what I can do to get the app to open please, T I A regards Christine

Hi Doc thanks for all the information, I'm in the process of getting a fire stick hopefully to use it at our static caravan on the island of zante Greece. The small site has wifi no pass word required. I'm thinking of installing a vpn on the fire stick when in the uk would i have ti reinstall it once I'm in zante, I was thinking of using Nord vpn I was told that this was one that could hide my location. Thanks David, hope this makes sense
@jokernstuffshy6103 Жыл бұрын
The purpose of a vpn is to hide you , once your account is installed you don’t have to do anything other than a few simple feature changes in the settings. You definitely need a vpn , open free wifi are risky anyone can see what your doing , you want one that also has zero logs , most recommend ones are IPVanish or surshark , these also allow you as many devices as you want where rest have a limit from 5-10 ,
