Hello I have a samsung tv (QN90A) and want to watch netflix on it with vpn active.
the tv doesnt support vpn apps so I’m wondering what the best option for me is. I plan to get a chromecast 4k and download a vpn app on it and watch netflix through that, but I’m worried about quality loss since it wont be on the direct source of the tv itself but through the chromecast to the tv (+ I don’t know if the QN90A’s 4k upscaling will work like that). I’ve looked a bit into vpn routers but setting it up looks very complex. i want to have a fairly simple solution even its more expensive. any ideas?
The quality from an AppleTV I find to be the best but not all VPNs work on an AppleTV.
If you get a streaming device, a 4k Google Chromecast with GGTV or Firestick Max 2nd Gen should give you good picture quality and run a VPN.
All 3 devices will upscale HD images to 4k and your Samsung will receive a 4k signal.
If you want to use Netflix on your TV, you need a paid VPN, which will provide a DNS that spoofs your location. You change this DNS in your TV’s network settings.
I recommend getting an Apple TV with 128 GB of storage. It has better quality than many TVs. Plus, it will be easy to install any VPN of your choice.
