minus-squarecheese_greater@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down5·1 year agoWhats the cheapest and most facile way to get AppleTV to run through VPN? Can I get something in-between router and device that enforces everything thru it? So sick of Appls bullshit, fuck
minus-squareToes♀linkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 year agoThe cheapest option would be to see if your VPN provider has an app or workaround for the appletv to do this. The more effective option would be to see if your router has a feature to use the VPN and if not use a router that does.
minus-squareArbiterXero@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoMany “bettter” routers can do this, pfsense can do it. The problem is that Apple TV may get removed from your local network, meaning you can’t air-play to it at all lol. Unless your whole network is on the vpn.
minus-squareAlexisFR@jlai.lulinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoWhy would you need a VPN inside your local network?
minus-squarecheese_greater@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoCuz if I wanna stream shit, I don’t want them to have my IP in case they ban it or they are selling that info
minus-squarethefactremains@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-211 months agoYou need a DNS proxy. They work perfectly fine for changing streaming location on AppleTV. Here’s a good one
