So you figured out how to use a VPN on your computer, in order to protect yourself from intruders and annoying restrictions. Also, you’ve probably learned how to utilize it on your portable device, but now you’ve got yourself Smart TV. When trying to watch Netflix and Hulu you’ve realized that since you’re outside the US, it doesn’t work. That’s why using your VPN service for your new TV will definitely benefit you in the long run. The VPN will simply block your IP address then route you to an anonymous US VPN service just like you do with your VPN for your PC and mobile devices.
There is no way to directly setup a VPN on a Smart TV, the only solution to using a VPN on a Smart TV is to run the VPN through a DD-WRT router and then connect your TV to the router. Alternatively you can connect your Smart TV to a shared Windows VPN connection which is a much more simple process.
The process for Mac OSX users is very similar and just as simple.
