hey how's it going everybody welcome back and today i'm going to show you guys a couple of
simple ways of course to use your vpn on your ps4 and ps5 so before we begin if you guys
are interested in any of the vpns mentioned today you'll find links to special deals and
discounts in the description down below as well as for reviews if you'd like to learn more about
these vpns now there are two ways to i think two really effective ways of uh connecting your ps4
to the vpn now unfortunately the ps4 and five 5 you won't really be finding any native vpn
applications unfortunately on the playstation store however what you can do is well i think
the best way to connect your playstation 4 and 5 while the most reliable way really is by using
a router so i think expressvpn has the best router app in the industry it's super easy to use
requires little to no configuration and you can get it to work in little to no time really and uh
with regards to how to set it up it's very simple uh you'll find the guide on the router right here
so expressvpn on your router if you just visit their website you'll be able to see this little
guide here and they'll tell you exactly how you can set it up so that's one option but
unfortunately you're gonna need a compatible router and this is when you know most people
might not be willing to buy a compatible router so in this case what you can do is of course first
of all install the vpn software on your device so whichever vpn you're using i recommend three
these three vpns expressvpn nordvpn and surfshark especially when it comes to gaming the ping you'll
be getting off of expressvpn will be the closest to your native ping followed up by nord and surf
shark so i would say expressvpn will increase your ping by about one or perhaps two milliseconds
sometimes it'll give you even the same if it's a good server it'll give you the same
as your native ping nordvpn will increase your ping by about three to five sometimes six
milliseconds and surfshark will increase your ping uh between five and fifteen depending on how far
you are from the game server and the vpn server so overall these are great vpns for loping gaming
so first of all you have to of course install once you've subscribed to your vpn service
you're going to install the vpn software on your pc and connect to it you have to plug one end of
the ethernet cable into the back of your pc and the other end into your ps4 or ps5 so this is
how you're going to share your pc connection with your ps5 or iv next up you're going to
want to go to the control panel and uh head to uh network and internet then you're going to click
on your network and sharing center and then change your adapter settings right here of course you
want to be connected to your vpn so i'm going to go ahead and turn on my vpn and you'll notice that
one of these so where is it let's just go ahead and refresh so this is it the expressvpn driver
right here you're going to look for your vpn driver and you're going to click properties
open the sharing tab allow other network users to connect through this computer's
internet connection and then you're going to select your internet so whatever is feeding your
uh internet here your connection in my case that'll be ethernet right here studio so i'm just
gonna have to select that ethernet which one was it actually if just ethernet no numbers so right
here and click ok so once you click ok on your ps4 go to settings network settings set up internet
connection as if you're setting up your connection for the first time pick use a lan cable and select
the easy connection method on ps5 go to settings network setup internet connection and this will
automatically scan and set up your ethernet connection make sure to select do not use
a proxy server when prompted and then you can test your internet connection if you would like
if all has gone well your console should now be connected to the internet via a vpn now i've heard
some reports that some pcs are just uh not working you just can't use this method uh for a variety of
complications uh and i'm honestly not exactly sure why this happens with some pcs but it seems to be
uh rare so if that happens let us know in the comments below and we'll try to uh kind
